More fun than Mayonnaise... or at least equally fun... OK, it's less fun, but you're still reading...
day one is a jetlagged blur... i vaugely remember doing or hallucinating these things:
- eating a bacon and cheese sandwich while people watching on la rambla.
- seeing the Sagrada Familia for the first time. dissapointed that you can´t get any perspective.
- lots of public work projects. bcn seems junky. 2000 construction sites, 4 workers total
- tried to replicate a fire in hearth with pretzel logs and moterella. my matches keep breaking and i can´t get the fire started.
- rode subway to subway because it´s the only way to stay awake. sitting equals sleep.
- htoel has english breakfast, but only for the english. being american. we don´t qualify.
- finally, at 5 pm went to bed. slept until 11.30am the next day. feel so much better...
Bacon and Cheese ... here or to go?
Dining tip: order the Special of the Day if you can't figure out what anything is on the menu. Few people die from those, and in fact it's probably pretty tasty in some local or cultural way.
