    Barcelona Harbour

    First glimpse of Barcelona and some of its beaches which in preparation for the Barcelona Olympics had sand shipped in from the Sahara.
    Apparently there is a nudist beach close to the city however not enough time to visit it...d’oh!

    The city of Barcelona has a waterfront not dissimilar to aspects of StKilda beach in the number of cafes and bars that face the ocean.

    The number of cafes and tapas bars are amazing and I wonder how they are all supported however if you understand how tapas is eaten it makes more sense. It is common practice for people to visit three to four tapas bars a night to eat the different types of food available at each bar.

    Barcelona on first impressions is a much more interesting and pleasant place than Madrid...it seems more relaxed and green and traditional.
