Barcelona - What a place

We have left Valencia this morning and are now in Barcelona at the nice Hotel Nouvel that was recommended by Chris Mundy and her Spanish students.  We had a hell of a time getting here because again, the cab drivers spoke no English and we did not have the correct address for the hotel (wasn't on the internet site) so we took a round about way to get here, but here we are.

 We arrived at the train early, and waited for our 11:18 train ride.  Not as fast this time, because it made several stops.  But it was beautiful.









Pretty boring, right?  Ok, enough with train pictures (they were for Tracy DeLong).


Ate here, right across the street


Free Wi Fi so Jerry is checking scores


Seems odd to be in a hotel room after the apartments, we are kind of....crowded.  But, it will be fine for only 4 nights and we are right off the Ramblas, which is the big ped mall in the city.  Packed with people and I am sure we will have lots of photos for you tomorrow.  Our internet access is limited to an hour a day, so if you email us, we will get it but it might take a while to get back to you.  Looking forward to what everyone calls their "favorite" Spanish city.  Adios
