barca day 2,3,4

Day 2!

blast, 4 different choice cereals, orange juice, bread with jam, coffee/tea, yoghurt!

all this in buffet style for breakfast at 'Centric Point Hostel'! so if u ever go to barcelona, this would be best hostel to stay in!

and yea, as it would be expected some people did make this, their breakfast/lunch/dinner for the day..... :-(





picasso museum has first place on the list of disappointments in barcelona.

being only a fan of google's picassa web, I couldnt appreciate his work much!

but mayb and juz mayb if you are fan of picasso, then you should consider a visit to this museuem which has looong queues!

and if you do visit, please check the rooms 7 & 8, for the painting that is worth the most of your buckz!


after the disappointment of barcelona, we went seperate ways, ben went to walk around shopping district, doug was in the beach, and I was somewhere else...

while on the metro, I noticed something really weird! have you spotted it already???

I believe it was made fun of already, if you still havent got it, answer is there at the end of this post






we met again at like 6pm in the evening, with the sun expected to shine till 9.30pm plus, we decided to visit a church which was visible from our hostel, but we never knew where it was.... (only that it was on top of a mountain).

In the picture, it is barely visible at the backdrop, click on it to see the hi-res version or here

I did make some videos on the way up, overall it was like a roller coaster of a ride, videos later..
















we thought we were already there, but as we found out, we were not even half way through!

the picture was at about half-way point











then we reached a theme park, thought it was it!
but then realised it was which, the church was part of....

i have to say i felt a sense of achievement climbing the mountain,
after we finally reached the church!!
and below the church itself.... (and the power of the wide angle lens)

the view of the city from that church towards the city is below

then we had some difficulty finding our way back to the city...

but we did make it, and did find a really nice buffet restaurant, it had free flow of everything from pizza to pasta, salads and soft drinks...

really nice treat for the hardwork of climbing the mountain

end of day 2, more updates soon!







btw the answer to the weird thing on the picture! we all went like 'Whats with the 5 cents?'
