Day 20 - Barcelona what a sweet sweet bitch

The train rid eto BArcelona was awesome. Not the ritz but awesome. We had our own cabin on the train with shower and toilet. The beds folded up and turned into first class seats. Dinner and breakfst was included. And a wake up call 1 hour before we arrived was also complimentsary. Once we arrived though the luxury ended. NBot knowing where we were going to stay we headed to the tourist office in the center of town. The hot ass subway took us there but not before we seweated off 10lbs of water weight. (PS- both of us are fat from spains ham and olives)

After getting some info on the pyranees we explored the southern pasrt of town to the marina. By the time we were doneon barcelonas Rambla(a long pedestrian strip that is a haven for scams, street art and hoodlums, we needed some quiet. We ducked into a mcDonalds for some cool and quiet but jsut got the cool. We quickly figured out a hotel nearby and booked a room. # star right on the water the park hotel put us back in the happy place. Tired of Tapas and cured ham we book a reservation at teh hippest restaurnat in barcelona. It was as contemperary spain as you could get and worth the 160 euros. A little bit of posh lifted our enegy levels back to full so we could continue into the pyranees tomorrow.

Killer barcelona specialty: toasted bread, a tomate and raw garlic all in a basket. What you do is crack the gralic, rub it on the bread. Cut the tomate and squeeze teh juice on the bread. Then drizzle with olive oil and salt. Delicious. We also had a spanish viogner. Very goood bootle of wine. I tell you. Delicious but our hotel room smelt like raw garlic fram in the morning.
