BARCELONA, SPAIN
A reunion was long over due for Gwen and I. (history: Gwen and I went to CSU together our freshman year, and sadly Gwen trasferred to Texas to finish her schooling. So... both of us are in Europe for the summer and we decided that it was time to meet up again, and what a better place than Barcelona?)

24 hours to...
to see Barcelona, tan on the beach, catch op on each other's lives, worry about people stealing our purses, watch out for pick-pocketers, eat some Spanish food and have fun.

Gwen and Molly
Our sexy feet with our matching tattoos!
(back in the day we decided to get tattoos together, haha)
The sights of BarcelonaWe went a strolling down La Rambla
(being extra careful for the pick-pocketers... the night before Gwen caught someone pick pocketing from her, lucky for her she caught it in time, and sucks for them because they actually got caught)

Barcelona has to be one of the most amazing cities in the world. The sunshine is so good to the people here that they just pass happy vibes around to everyone. The sun and the sea are important here, it governs how people go about their daily lives and very rarely does anything challenge their importance.This is a city for enjoying all of the good things in life from dancing to eating to talking to swimming to just walking around. We booked a room in one of the Barcelona hotels right in the center of the Old Town - wanting to be close to everything. Every street is an art gallery, Barcelona has a beautiful aesthetic and you can feel it from the people even in the way they drive. One thing that has become clear as Barcelona attracts more and more tourists is that you have to make the effort to speak some Spanish because it really affects the way the locals react to you. Making an effort to speak even a little bit of Spanish can make an amazing difference - people will pay more attention to you and go that extra bit for you.
