Uno, dos, tres
On our third and last day of our trip we woke up to bright sunshine and blue skies - hooray!!
Thank goodness, because we were scheduled to go on a four hour bike tour and doing so in the pouring rain would be - how do you say - no bueno.
The bike tour started in Sant Juame Square. We broke in to smaller (and by smaller I mean 20 people) groups (apparently bike tours are popular on sunny days) and headed out.
We saw City Hall...
The Barcelona Cathedral...

| notice the scaffolding that graces many of our photos |
the Arc de Triumf (Spanish style)...
and the Parc de la Ciutadella...
Brian got a little fancy with his camera...
and then I got a little fancy with mine...
We saw Sagrada Familia and learned more about Antoni Gaudi...
And then.
And then - we went to heaven
A little place I like to call, the beach.
*cue angels*
Man, I love the beach.
If you find yourself in Barcelona I highly recommend the Fat Tire Bike Tour that we took. The city is relatively easy to navigate on bikes, the city is extremely bike friendly (bike lanes on most roads and sidewalks) and the guides are witty and knowledgable about the city.
Next up, Project 52 week 11 and later next week - Paris!
