Day Three (Lauren & Dan)

The Morning...
After waking up at 9:00 am we went downstairs to have breakfast. We then went back upstairs to get ready to go out for a full days excitement. We started off by walking to the metro and catching the train that would take us to the port of Barcelona. We then had a guided tour, on boat, around the commercial side of the port and other tourist attractions and this was really fun and interesting. We had lunch on the boat as well. The weather was also quite cold today and brought rain with it but everyone was prepared with umbrellas and waterproof jackets.

The Afternoon...
Yet again, we got on the metro and headed towards Las Ramblas (One of the main tourism streets in Barcelona). Many people bought gifts for themselves or family. We continued walking until we reached a large square (where many pigions were) and everyone took a millon photo graphs. We did some more walking and went back on the metro to go to Parc Guell (a park designed by the same man who designed Sergada Familia). We went up a very large hill (and I mean huge & steep) which seemed to take ages and we were all very tired by the time we got to the top). Again we took photos (like the one above). We could see the whole of Barcelona from that point. We got the metro once again and arrived back at the hostel around 4:30 pm, pretty much everyone was tired from all the walking (and slightly wet from the rain).

We now have till 7 pm to relax and chat before heading out again to a Flamenco show and dinner!
