September 21, 2012 Friday Barcelona

Walked with our luggage to the train station for five hour trip to Barcelona. Passed many  wind turbines in very barren lands then saw many olive and various other fruit tree farms. After checking in to the Granvia Hotel (a former palace), having lunch along the Passe de Grace we strolled by two of the Gaudi designed houses. Finished our walk to narrow streets avoiding the large crowds around the Ramblas packed in for Old Town Festival Week .
