Back from Barcelona

Just back from the 3 days in Barcelona. And can report not a raindrop in sight. Had glorious weather all weekend. So much for the beeb helping me plan my wardrobe requirements with their global forecasts.

Will upload photos and more detailed stuff over next couple of days but in summary:

• Great hotel with amazing views. Extortionate mini bar prices eg 10 Euros for a small jar of almonds? 10 Euros for a Coke?
• Great food (apart from suspect sandwich for lunch on the Saturday)
• Loved all the Gaudi stuff. Totally amazing.
• Lots of fun and laughter with family. They humoured my Starbucks requirements.
• Did pretty well on the Spanish culture of siestas and then eating and drinking sangria at midnight, but all night drinking atmosphere somewhat lost on me
• Bought clothes in Zara. When in Spain and all that.

Now need sleep...
