Today has been a really great day
Still at the “House sit”
in northern Spain, Taz, Joel and I took the train into Barcelona to do the
Sightseeing bit. Now cities are something I tend to steer well clear of, but I’m
aware that I do miss out on a lot of interesting stuff as a result. This idea
of letting the train take the strain was again, something new… and I must say
something of a revelation. Barcelona is amazing and certainly worthy of far
more time spending on some of the spectacular sites and sights! Yes this is a
city that I will returning to at some point with someone special. T see in
greater detailk the amazing Gaudi buildings and especially the Cathedral. The
huge market right in the center of the city is also somewhere I will want to spend
more time trying out a few more of the many delicacies on offer. This was all
topped off by our hosts putting on a very special dinner party for us, having
cooked a Catalonian fish dish, Suquette; a fish stew…wonderful and washed down
with a nice bottle of bubbly. What a day!
Tomorrow will be our last day of staying with these lovely
people… it’s time to move on. Friday morning will see the three of us back on
the road heading round the coast to France and then on to Italy and beyond. As much as the hospitality here has been
wonderfull, it will be good to be back in the tents and self-sufficient.
I'll try to get some pics sorted tomorrow.
