Barcelona, Spain, Wed 08 Oct 08

Through a fantastic deal we managed to get cheap flights to Barcelona for a few days, only downside was we were flying out of Luton and into Girona. Bit of a mission really, all up it took us 7 hours in transit. Here's a bit of a rundown on that evening so you can try and get a feel for the pain we went through;

leave house, walk to train station, train into london, change to underground to cross london, change to train to head out north to Luton, bus link from train to airport, nice long wait at airport, two hour flight to Barcelona, 1 hour bus from airport to city, metro from bus station, walk to hostel.

So... walk, train, tube, train, bus, plane, bus, metro, walk... what a mission!

As you can imagine we simply crashed that night so not much to talk about sorry, except that our hostel was a cool tall skinny building and we were up on the tenth floor. Made for some good views.

And very close to our hostel was a tall office building (sorry no idea what it was called) but it was lit up really pretty at night. This was a photo from our hostel window! It's not as pretty during the day.
