The Barcelona scenes are a dreamscape full of palm trees and romantic historical buildings that make one want to sport a C16th gown and hood.. or maybe that's just me. Specifically when a fella on a spanish guitar is singing a beautiful ballad whilst you're in the midst of the gothic quarter. I can happily say I have fallen in love with the city and five days just wasn't long enough to explore and have a full blown summer affair with the place.
Evenings were particularly wonderful spent at The Placa Reial Square in the heart of La Rambla sipping cocktails at Ocana and then dinner at Rossini for great Italian/Spanish food. Perfect. Days were spent with cultural visits; that way we could escape back to the hotel rooftop pool by late afternoon with our new poolside favourite beer, Damm Lemon. I miss it already...
