Barcelona freaking rules.
It´s hot as hell, the skies are blue, the women are gorgeous, the beaches are clean, the beers are cheap and the people are friendly.
Originally we were only going to stay 4 nights here but we have decided to extend it to 6 just because it`s such a cool city.
We have done all the super touristy things - a bus tour through the city, we saw a lot of Gaudi´s work, hit up Parc Guell, and saw a lot of the Gothic Quarter. This place has some amazingly old churces which have incredible work on them - will upload the photos soon when I can.
What really stole the show was the Sagrada Familia. It inspired a few cries of amazement as we were approachaing it where we caught glimpses of it through the tree´s, but once we hit the main strip and it was in full view everyone could do nothing but gasp in awe of the place. It is easily the coolest thing I have ever seen in my short life.
We have met a lot of people in the hostel - funnily enough most are Australian!! We have met Deep from Perth, Maria from Melbourne and a lot of Americans, some crazy Canadians who were into Animals and some other randoms.
We have spent a lot of time lazing at the beach, drinking beers ($1 AUD for a 6pack of beer. SORRI???) and getting blacker than Midnight on Broadway and Myrtle. The women on the beach are beautiful, yet slightly tricky. Yesterday a beautiful spanish thing was sunning herself when an old man walked up to her, leaning over her having a chat. She looked uncomfortable and he was staring at her boobs. As he was leering he kept on playing with the chord of his buggie smugglers and all of us were thinking this was a disgusting old man trying to sleazily pick up. So I did what any other man would do - I walked up to her, laid my towel next to her, and laid down.
Me: Hey babe, sorry I took so long.
Her: Hi...That´s OK.
Me: You know, the other day I was thinking about the amazing night we had in Madrid... (Around here I put my arm around her shoulders)
Her: Oh yeah, that was great...
Me: (Now gritting through my teeth) Now give me a kiss on the cheek to get rid of this creepy man.
Her: ... That´s my dad.
...
.....
Muerda.
All of a sudden I hear everyone we were with crack up hard. My face loses all it´s colour and I feel like the biggest toolbag on the planet.
I apologised profusely to the both of them, and then ended up having a chat with the girl (Maria) who was very nice and a nurse. We then went back to our rooms for a quick nap, before hitting a party up in some Pool centre which was pretty cool.
Anyways, time has run out, catch on the next time, hopefully I will have some pics uploaded!
Pêace in the Middle East!
