Barcelona (Part 2)

Barcelona of course staged the 1992 Olympic Games and on Day 2 we jumped off the city tour bus to take a look at the stadium. We actually thought it looked rather small and I never realised it was a renovation of an older stadium.

Next stop and we took the cable car up to the castle which overlooks the city and the massive port which lies adjacent. Back down again and the bus made its way to the waterfront and the Port Vell area where we jumped off, had a pizza for lunch and strolled through the shopping centre.

The "Blue Route" took us northwards into the old district and the impressive cathedral which of course was covered in the obligatory scaffolding just to spoil your holiday snaps.

Knackered... we headed back to the hotel to freshen up and then came back again into the city centre for something to eat. We found a restaurant called Fargo and ordered a Paella which was Lekker!

To be continued...
