Making our way from Australia to Canada and taking the long way!

Si!

Barcelona is cool. It´s got a good vibe to it. Since we are in the last leg of our trip we decided that a little splurging was in order. No more $4 rooms people, we had to switch it up to 4 star (****) hotels! Having a nice place to bunk makes life that little bit nicier. So what that we ended up spending more in four days in Barcelona than we did in like three weeks in Laos! We´re livin the good life for a bit (sort of).

Barcelona has got a bit of everything. Its got historical sites, art with heavy influence by Gaudi, a decent beachfront for a city (not as good as Sydney though) and shopping and good transport. It is however expensive to eat and find a place to sleep.




We did what we normally do with most destinations. Lots of walking around in the sun, sightseeing and pigging out on food. This trip has made our eating habits terrible. We eat what we want whenever we want and that includes lots of junk foods.

From Barcelona we darted for Mallorca where we are writing this. We´ll cover that on the next update.
