Meeting up with Irene We’ve just been in Barcelona for the last 3 days. We drove down to meet Irene who is en route to Morocco on an Intrepid tour. It was wonderful to see sissie and great to be in Barcelona again. Barcelona is chaotic and exciting and interesting. There is so much going on. It was busier than when we were there in October. I guess it’s all the hustle and bustle of Christmas. It was very crowded everywhere we went.
Irene stayed in a hostel the first night before we got there and then she bunked in with us the next 2 nights. It was already a small room with 2 double beds and a single and they put in an extra bed so it was a tight squeeze.
We walked around this huge park on the first afternoon where we saw the mammoth. The next morning Andrew took the kids to the Aquarium while Irene and I wandered around the Boqueria markets and the Ramblas. Barcelona is a great city for walking, all the little alleyways and side streets. There’s always something unexpected around the next corner.
