Last day in Barcelona

Well, today is my last day in Barcelona. I ended up sleeping in until around 11. After my post last night I went to the beach and night-life area with a girl from my hostel. She is studying  at the university in Barcelona and we met up with some of her college friends. Although the beach was crowded, it was fun to hang out with a group of people who spoke fluent English. We tried to bar hop, but the steep drink prices and strict dress codes kept us from doing so.

I visited the Picasso museum today. It was interesting  to see and compare his early work to his late work (which he is more famous for). My favorite paintings were those of his early years. They were mostly landscapes on scraps of wood and cardboard.

I intended to end my day going to a restaurant that only served dessert; however, it was 35-50€ per plate. I settled for a tiramisu ice cream and watched people dance on the square.


I would have also included the decadent ice cream cone in the picture, but I ate it too quickly.

Until Marseille tomorrow,
Kristin
