Barcelona

We only had a quick visit to Barcelona, but it was great! Our hostel was nice and clean, had big bathrooms, free breakfast, and free wifi. Only drawback of the stay was the smelly guy on the bed next to us. We didn't do much sightseeing, but spent more time just walking around the city. There was good shopping in Barcelona. Maybe a little too much good shopping... The city was not as dangerous as everyone said it would be, although we did witness an attempted pickpocket. We never actually got to go into Sagrada Familia, so we are both looking forward to doing that next time we are in the city, and maybe more of it will be finished!
