Long day today, but got oriented to the city and saw lots of interesting things. Dinner was at the top of the old Bull Arena, which has been turned into a shopping center. I'll visit there later.Leer más
Viajero sounds like you had an awesome day :) My grandpa was super concerned that you are in Barcelona, I am glad the protests looked not chaotic!
Viajero Tell Grandpa we are fine. The protests are scheduled for Sundays as I said, and the city has stipulated what groups can protest on what Sunday. So, there is less of a chance that things will get out of control. There were police and swat everywhere, even helicopters monitoring the crowd from above. Plus I have my own personal line backer attacked to my hip, so if he said let's go I'd be tossed over a shoulder and hauled to safety, gotta luv him
