Day 47 / 48

Day 47 / July 13, 2013

Today Nicolo was our tour guide around Barcelona.

 Nicolo took us to one of his favorite places for lunch.

(we wouldn't have gone there on our own)   It was so busy, shoulder to shoulder people. Abby almost punched someone for pushing her in her back.  Nicolo went to the counter ordered us a variety of sandwiches, cava and 2 small plates of meat.

The food was very good!!!
Andy said it's one of his favorite places we've ate.

 I made it back to the cute little cupcake place.

We came back home, went to the pool.  Hit a volleyball around in the grass courtyard until we were told that it wasn't allowed. oops.

Got ready and headed back out on the town.

We put on name on the list at our restaurant and then went walking around the city for another hour.

  Thought of my friends when I saw this :)

 

At the restaurant Nicolo ordered for us.  We enjoyed some fun tapas

Mini Hamburger and mini hot dogs

Cheese on a stick rolled in nuts with jam.

After dinner we walked the city some more.

 Tory in Placa de Catalunya. The main square of Barcelona.

With all the walking today & tonight we think we walked close to 8 miles.

When we got home we started at movie at 1:30am, and then Nicolo slept outside on the lounge on the balcony.


Day 48 / July 14, 2013

Today we woke up at noon (except Andy was up earlier). Then we went to the beach.

While at the beach the women in front of us heard Nicolo talk Spanish on the phone to a friend. She was surprised by how well he spoke Spanish.  She started a conversation with Abby.
She was very friendly, she gave us suggestions on another beach that we should visit.
She took some photos for us, and we asked for her to be in a photo with us.

Tory building a sandcastle.

We came home for Nicolo to shower and pack before he had to leave.

We said our goodbyes and the girls walked him to the subway station.

We ate pizza, and caprese at home.   Read, played Yahtzee on Abby's ipad, watched a movie.
A great family night.
