To be a tourist

Last weekend I have become in a tourist in my own city. My italian friends have come to Barcelona for a week. In this long (Monday was a free-day for me) weekend we have visited: the city center, the Batllo's House, Guell's Park, the district of Gracia...

In the Batllo's House I met Lola Herrera and her daugther (she is an actress too). By the way, I recommend you visit this house but the terrace of this is nothing specially. However, the terrace of "La Pedrera" is impressive and the view too.

On Sunday, we went to my home for lunch. My mum cooked a "paella", it was the best one I have tasted in the last months. Obviously they thinked as me.

Tomorrow we will go to my sister's house to have dinner. It would be a bit of everything: Spanish omelette, prawns, bread with tomatoe...

Unfortunately I was on diet and it this week has benn forgotten... But I will return on it next week!!!!

I think that we spend a lot of time trying to know different ways, cities and countries, but normally, we don’t appreciate the interesting things we have in our city.

I only take a walk by Barcelona and go to tourists’ places, when my family comes to visit us and then I realise that I don’t know the city where I live.

Some friends and I have thought that one day we are going to catch the tourist bus and enjoy one day in Barcelona!!!

I bet you discovered things you did not know. Nice experience, isn't it?

I agree with all of you. I often discover new secret places walking aimlessly. And I love it.
