Travelling

Day 11- today was our first day in Barcelona. We all seemed a little anxious today as I think this is when ppl started to be tired and cranky. We headed to a info center and gathered all we needed for the next few days. First off the st Maria church which well....was just like the other churches we had seen. I think ive almost had enough church sight seeing haha. But we also found a amazing coffee shop opposite the church as well as a Lollys shop called happy pills. Just what we needed! Next we encountered a lovely old lady who's payment for helping us find the Picasso museum was to make the boys wear their backpacks on their fronts to combat 'theft' was pretty funny and she reminded me of mum a bit!
Well the Picasso Museum was exciting.....
Next we headed to the dock to go zorbing. The buildings around this area were really weird and modern. Unfortunately zorbing was shut however we did get offered some pot by a scateboreding youth. So instead we headed to the Barcelona zoo which was good in the fact that you were close to the animals however the zoo itself was a tad depressing. Exhibits needed a bit of a clean. Exhausted and footsore we headed out for dinner which after trying to find two of the recommended places, found some tourist tapas which was really not very pleasant! We however did find a food market near licue station that had the yummiest fruit juice and fruits, so we stocked up for the next day!
