My friends and I arrived in Barcelona with a cheap flight from Brussels. In some way it was a kind of relief for my friends because we were back in Latin world. Brazil is 10 hours flight away across Atlantic Ocean. But for myself it was like saying goodbye to my roots back in Germany.
Our hostel in was booked through Internet. By subway to downtown Barcelona, Las Ramblas...well famous...packed with people..., we walked along to check in first. It was evening, night life was just beginning. Men, I had not yet rent a car but brought credit cards, travel insurance card, passport…ready to enjoy vacations and summer. But...I thought...why all this? We decided simply walk...do you believe that? It was warm at night and at the end of Las Ramblas pedestrian walk we could see lots of cruisers along the port of Barcelona! It was just another world...great, but first let's have dinner! But where?
At Brussels airport we met a friend coming to Barcelona. Her brother lives in town and invited us to have dinner at a typical Catalan restaurant. Well, we put a soft social suit and at arrival guests stayed in line trying to get a seat. Our friend’s brother nevertheless made a reservation for us before.
