Monday, Monday!

 Walked through narrow streets of the El Born neighborhood. Went inside a cathedral. Metro to our lunch stop: El Nacional.  Awesome place with dining sections specializing with meat; fish; Tapas, etc! We chose meat! Walked to a craft beer pub: double IPA!  Weather chilly. After siesta, we decided to stay in for remainder of night.

Observations: Locals speak a version of Spanish: Catalonian. Those we’ve encountered speak minimum to some English. We use hand signals.  Music on stores speakers are 60’s sung by American artists.

Park Guell:  Gaudi’s art is everywhere! So much mosaic! We rode hop on bus there; city bus back. We noticed at buildings corners, they are rounded, not a sharp corner!  Mopeds, scooters, bikes, cars, taxis, buses everywhere. Narrow streets; many cars have side scrapes. Went to Gothic District tonight; enjoyed cocktails in a little bar.  I walked 18,539 steps today!

Siesta time!   Found a healthy food restaurant  & enjoyed a Flamenco performance at City Hall,  Observations: no pick up trucks, dinners are usually 8pm and much later. Many local stores/restaurants open at 5:30pm!
