Were back aboard!!!

I just had to post this picture. Dee was certainly taken by surprise when we ordered a couple of beers in Barcelona. A good time was had by all. The weather apart from last night in Torrevieja, where it was blowing a gale, was better than we'd expected ranging from 15 to 20c. The one thing that disappointed me about our visit to Spain was the amount of graffiti! I can't believe the Spanish government are not acting to curb this obvious epidemic! Or maybe I can!!

One thing I can remember from my last visit here are the street sculptures pictured below (1) who frequent La Rambla's. These guys are just unbelievable and some of the costumes are tremendous.

If you ever visit Barcelona take the bus tour. The architecture is superb and the Sagrada Familia (Church of the Holy Family) pictured below (2) is breathtaking.

After 3 days in Barcelona we took the train to Alicante and then on by road to Torrevieja. Our train journey was superb and puts our rail system to shame. The views are spectacular, especially the Sierra Nevada mountain range. 4 hours 30 minutes later we arrived 'on time' in Alicante.
