I had a lovely sleep in this morning, as I had nothing planned for today, apart from the included walking tour starting from the hotel at 11:30am and then the celebration dinner this evening, departing from the hotel at 7pm.
I think I went down to breakfast some time after 8am. There were a few other people from the tour there, so I guess quite a number didn't do the optional to Mount Monserrat and the Black Madonna, or did it a couple of weeks ago, as part of their extended Northern Spain Tour.
It's a holiday here in Barcelona today, so apart from local coffee shops and the like, no other stores or banks or businesses are open. Apart from the tourist ones. I went for a walk around the extended block AND didn't get mislaid at all. I was only gone for an hour, so not an especially long walk.
Those doing the included Barcelona walk and visit to Sagrada Familia were on the coach and on our way on time.
Sagrada Familia is so very crowded, and more and more tourists visit Barcelona every year. I was looking at some of my photos of Barcelona, when I was here in 2005 and the crowds have changed. A few pics from today's visit.
Tomorrow is the start of the journey home. My bag needs to be out at 0530 and the transfer to the airport is at 0630, so I won't be staying up late tonight.
Night all
