Ahoy,
Barcelona is the pickpocketing capital of Europe, according to wikitraval. But we also know Rafael nadal is from Spain, so we were super excited to run into him and have him kick our butts. We saw Roger Federer when we passed through switzerland. It was fabulous. He looked so chic in his watch advertisement.
Aside from being hyper cautious for pickpocketers, I still love Spain. The siesta thing makes it a lot less crowded in the middle of the day. The weather is a lot warmer, which the tall one is happy about. There are both small and big streets that lead into turnabouts like in other European cities.
Barcelona held the 1992 Olympics and that left an indelible mark on the city. It's obvious that some of the structures and monuments were built for the olympics. It's really interesting to see how the city runs after such a huge event. It's very different from what I saw of Athens. I won't bore you with the details. I know some of you must already be asleep. Certainly, the tall one is.
linguistically bulleted,
jt
