Barcelona

We were booked on a 10.25 am Air France flight from Bordeaux to Barcelona yesterday.Neither of us thought about the fact that this might be a regional flight and so were a bit surprised to see that our plane held about 100 people.  When boarding, neither or us could stand fully straight because the ceiling was right there!  It only took about an hour to fly over the Pyrenees to get here.  What a sight though.  Beautiful snow capped mountain range then northern Spain is very green, after good rain this winter.  We had to circle away from Barcelona before we landed and had great views of it all - very lovely.  Our apartment is great and we have a room each here.  There are 8 people here.  We walked about the neighbourhood a bit and had a late dinner in an Argentinian restaurant last night, then the 4 men went to an Irish Bar to watch Barcelona play.  Mark and Steve are not well today - some bug. Lucas has booked his ferry to Ibiza for Wednesday night.  He and I did that this evening while we spent time at the port.   Very popular with the locals, so busy, lots of markets and stalls - holding tight to handbag and wallet pocket, as we'd been warned about the pickpockets in this area.  It was fun and colourful and noisy.  Europe is VERY multicultural and that's been very interesting to us both.
Unfortunately the wifi in this building is very slow, so no photos from us at the moment.
