woke up at 6am because i was drunk the night before and skype IM'd with dave. hannah will be narrating her school production and ben had his first sports day! i am kinda sad i missed/will be missing those :(
went to the picasso museum and saw art that showcased picasso's progression as an artist. two of his early pieces (first communion and then some pencil drawing of cherubs) clearly showed the talent he had (at fifteen years of age!)
we hopped on the tour bus and completed the blue route to see the rest of the city. the olympic stadium only holds 50,000 people which i thought was rather low and the columbus statue has an index finger measuring ~50cm!ate lunch ("durum" basically wrap) and the guy told us we shouldn't drink the tap water in barcelona. whoops. oh well. not dead yet.
did laundry and hung out at the beach here (right outside the hostel). hope i don't burn! there are annoying people at the beach trying to sell samosas, beer, pop, sarongs and massages and they all ask. the mediterranean sea is still cold at this point, but the hot sun drew tonnes of people out (topless too)sadly, rich observed a bag theft right in front of his eyes. lady put her bag down, and two guys on bikes came by, picked it up and cycled off. hard to realise what was going on until it was too late. poor lady. chilled out for rest of evening, rich is a bitch with cards. just play the set of wildcards...
