To Barcelona

Time to say farewell to our lovely host (with the help of Google Translate, of course!), to move on, to get to our hostel (#privateensuite!) in the heart of Barcelona.
Sad to leave, but so much to see ahead of us.

From Figueras, it was an easy journey.
At the station I was able to make the day for one man who was rushing to the toilet, dropping his wallet on the way. He came out very anxiously a few minutes later, & was relieved to be rejoined with his ID and money!

At Barcelona, there was some mild confusion as we were unable to exit the train from the main station to the local network…..eventually some staff let us through, & we had some local transport to take in order to reach our hostel near Las Ramblas….pretty straightforward enough.
We took our time to settle in, orientate ourselves, and then headed out to BierCaB, a bar with food recommended by my Parisian pal, Yves. A great decision - good beer, & good food🍻💪

Back at base, we were to discover that our room was great, but by heck the bin men and street cleaners work ALL through the night…Room 4 was a very noisy front room at an otherwise delightful hostel 😱Read more
