busy autumn wednesday

What a day, this last "real" day of our trip! Now it is already Thursday, so I´ll keep it short and in a few hours the students will come up with a proper blog. This morning it was raining again and not much warmer than 10 degrees. We left early for a cable ride plus fantastic view to the Montjuic and a visit to the Olympic stadium plus museum. Interesting but cold. Than we had a typical Catalan lunch in a restaurant downtown. Most of the students liked this. After lunch it was shopping time. All of us went joined by at least one other and all met at the meeting point on time, bags full of souvenirs. Time for a cooking course plus eating tapas and paella, quickly because we had to be on time for our last surprise, the musical Mama Mia, sitting in the first rows. We had a great time and quite a few of us had to realize that English is not the only language around: the whole show was in Spanish, but we knew the story and the dancing and singing was spectacular! In an excellent mood we returned to our hostel.
