Just back from four day break in siges near barcelona

[modd]

Had a great time . Near a beach and swimming pool. Timed in well with siges festival which was like more better version of the noting hill carnival in sunnier weather. thoughts on barcelona

(1) people are nice and friendly and quite few staff speak english which was a suprise.
(2) everything happens later in spain. lunch is later, dinner is late and kids are out with their familes at 1am in the mrning.
(3) the city of barcelona is amazing . Went to the nou camp on a tour which was just magnificent. Got a photo with european cup which cost me 20 euros but was worth it
(4) bus tour of barcelona was great but by chance saw kids traning on a five a side pitch and their were all doing short passes. none of this english long passes
(5) women in barcelona are beauiful with great bodies. I stayed in place though dominated by families and people who were gay. but still it was all good.

arriving back in the uk was very very depressing. got back in rain on monday and made me think why do i live here when the world is so much more exiciting and better weather.

Did you do Parc Guell or the Sagrada Familia?

[modd]

Did the Sagrada Familia which was like a gothic vampire type cathdal.

missed the Parc Guell due to only having a day in main city and time. But saw the magic fountain of monjuvic on saturday night which was as it as beauitful as it looks.

You get great view on the mountsin as well from their.

Just wished I had more time in barcelona. Only had time for green route of coach tour but not much of the organge route. Want to go back again.

London so depressing compared to barcelona.

and saw faces of spanish people on our plane im thinking why the f**k would you want to leave 30 degrees cheaper barcelona for expensive crowded non beach london.

London is a city break at most . Personally i never be able i think buy anywhere in london i can afford. I think living by the beach sounds a far nicer iife.

Alright, moddster?

[modd]

near where we stayed which was bit odd as you can see sights of people of all sexees and ages you don,t always wish to see..

But boy are they friendly and to my shame my catalan is shameful. They all speak english in the shops and restuarants which stunned me really.

I got to learn more languages.

Then that monday morning weather to cap it off.

At least the tube strike is off.

Basically, the place is handling far more passengers than it was ever set up to.
