Duo 1: Barcelona 0 May 13, 2009

So! We made it to Barcelona! After 2 hilarious plane rides (12 hours in which I did not sleep a wink despite prescription sleeping pills), we made it. They gave us free wine on the plane. I officially love Delta. It took us about 30 minutes to zip our backpacks back together, and about 10 minutes each to put them on. For reference, they are about 10x the size of every other traveler´s backpack. We broke the hostel closet TWICE trying to force them in hahah. Pretty sure we´re going to get charged for that. lol

So, after being awake for 25 hours, we checked into the hostel and searched the city. We strolled La Rambla, the main street, went to the street market and bought gross exotic things, and had some yummy paellea. And, we got a little lost in the local streets, far from the tourist spots. I saw my first live prostitute! yay! hahah.

We just woke up from a 4 hour nap and now we´re about to grab some food before the sangria party with the hostel and our first shot at Barcelona night life! Pregame starts at midnight, no big deal.

More to come. Miss you all!
