Day 2 City tour

A buffet breakfast at 8am and we're on the coach heading into Barcelona. Our guide Michael is English and he tells us bits and pieces about the towns we pass through and the history of Barcelona and the province. Lewis's music provides the backdrop when the guide is not speaking, much to Mr Smyth's disgust!
We pass a protest walk by a trade union about the cuts in Spain due to the economy, passing many beautiful buildings and landmarks before stopping at the Olympic Stadium where the 1992 Games were held.
We then go to Parc Guell, passing some amazing houses en route, and admire Gaudi's amazing artwork before heading to the Sagrada Familia. Off to the aquarium now after a successful rescue mission for Emma's iPhone!
