Sightseeing and Relaxing

My first weekend in Barcelona! Sofia, Alvaro and I stayed up late friday night practicing english and playing a classic game of hangman. Our day of walking around Barcelona today started late.
Below is a picture of Alvaro wearing my sunglasses. We were on our way to "La Rambla" in the taxi.


Below is Barcelona's most famous market, "Mercat de la Boqueria." It is one of Europe's largest food markets, with a countless array of fruit, meat, and sweets.





Most popular meat is pork; especially, leg. Look how expensive! 
Again, Barcelona has really tasty fruit! 
Me, Laura, Alvaro, and Sofia drinking strawberry/banana and mango drinks. 


Below are pictures around the well know statue of Christopher Columbus pointing to America.

Beautiful city! 
Below are pictures outside of Barcelona close to Mr. Carlo's parents home, Sant Andreu de Llavaneres.

Sweet family!
