Tuesday, Apr. 4 (week 11 / day 72) La Rambla, Barcelona

Fresh Bread Runs
We have finally arrived. We can walk around the corner of our apartment & find freshly baked bread & pastries every morning. Stacia's in heaven. This morning Kyra & Cannon went down by themselves to get bread. They didn't have to say a word, they just pointed & the nice lady figured it out & took the money. I think Kyra ate a whole loaf of French bread by herself! After a morning of relaxing, working out & some school, we had lunch, including some chocolate pastries of course & then left to see some sights.

La Pedrera & Casa Batllo
Our first sights were a couple of buildings by Anoni Gaudi built for wealthy families back in his day.

FC Barcelona
We had to stop in at the official store for Barcelona's soccer team. We have 4 tickets to see them play tomorrow night against Sevilla. The kids picked out some smaller souvenirs: key chain, water bottle & such. The jerseys were just too pricey here ($85-120)! Next we walked through the big Plaza de Catalunya & made a McDonald's stop to refuel. This place was great because it had touch screen boards as you walked in where you ordered & paid so when you got to the counter they were already halfway done getting your stuff ready!
