Barcelona!

After Madrid, we flew on Vueling airlines to Barcelona. Again, ran into some rain - but enjoyed the 20+ temperatures! We spent pretty much all of our time walking. Here, there and everywhere, especially through the old gothic quarter.

Arc de Triomf

Roman columns from the Temple of Augustus

Palm tree at the Catedral de Barcelona

Some of the amazing architecture in Barcelona, this being the Palau de la Musica

Our favourite market - Mercat Boqueria

Inside the market. On the left you can see some fruit, many of these stalls also had freshly squeezed fruit juice. It was delicious, Cara would buy two at a time, since they were only €1 a piece!

We took the cable car up to Montjuic

Warm but wet on Montjuic

Can you tell where the sky ends and sea starts?

The olympic stadium

We had a great time, even if a little wet, in Madrid and Barcelona! So lucky that finally the sun did come out in Barcelona :)
