We have entered our 4th country, Spain!! We are in Barcelona, a beautiful city with amazing architecture and narrow side streets and a nightife that rarely begins before 2am..Before we arrived in Barcelona we travelled from Paris via train to the south of France in search of the Med. We found it in the form of Valras Plage. Without even knowing it we managed to go to the "camping capital of the world", full of caravaning families and disturbing tans. Haven't these people heard of skin cancer? So we lounged in the heat (35C+) and uncovered our farmer tans. 4 days later, after having enough of camping and being dusty we made a charge for Barcelona. Our hostel is very small but full of fun people. We didn't manage to book our next two nights so we are in the midst of arranging more nights in this hostel, if not we move on to a new one. Our first full day in Barca we went to Nou Camp, the home of FC Barcalona, what a site it is. Fifa awarded Nou Camp with the prestigious 5 star award for stadiums and it doesn't dissapoint. We practicaly had full access to the field and stadium with our tour. Nou camp is the largest stadium in Europe and the 4th largest in the world, with a maximum capicity of 98,000 people. They love their football in Europe but it seems much more evident in Spain then it did in France. Here it is a religion. Today we will go to the Picasso musuem and take in somemore sights. If all goes to plan, tommorow we will go to Montserrat, which lies an hour outside the city center. After that we will cross the Med for Rome on a 19 hour ferry ride. Such be fun. Ciao for now....Mike & Adrian
