Barcel-oh-no

After laying out on the grassy knol for a few hours, I realized that I severely burned the back of my legs- mainly in the knee-pit area. What did I expect? I'm in Spain for God's sakes, I was fairly dehydrated, I'm in the company of one of the most tanned people I know, or have ever known, and some how I figured that this was the day that laying in the sun would result in a glorious, golden tan (I had enough insight to lay on my stomach because I thought I had had enough sun on my face and shoulders that day).

We continued to wander aimlessly in Barcelona, checking out markets again- can never see too many beaded necklaces, and walking cane widdled out of drift wood. Barcelona is home to an Architect/designer/Artist named Gaudi who designed all these bazaaro but really cool looking buildings. Em and I took a long walk to find some of them. The final stop was the Gaudi Cathedral- an amazing gigantic church that looks like its melting kind of. It has been under construction since the early 1900 and won't be done until about 2020. Crazy bones.

Well Emily was out of Barcelona the wee hours of the morning so it was decided that instead of paying for a hostel for herself she should stay up all night and take the bus to the airport at 3am. Well really it turned into us having dinner and then both falling asleep in my bunk in my room in the hostel until 2. Emily left then and I continued to sleep. Alas, it was the end of the Emily European adventure with me.

Not to worry though i was headed to Madrid in the morning, and who knows what was awaiting me there. Actually, who did know? Not me certainly, I had no idea what there was in Madrid, I just booked the flight because it was free.
