Barcelona Continued

I left the Barcelona post unfinished. Here is an update on the rest of the trip.

Barcelona is one of the best party cities in the world so after our tour on Friday we went out to some bars and a club called Opium.  <- (Link to the site). The club is absolutely huge and right on the beach. We had a great night.

Started the night at a bar called Chupitos. They have 300+ different shots. These happen to be on fire.
Cool shot of another bar.
Gettin weird at Opium.
Opium has a cool lounge area outside with big couches. Right on the beach. 
VIP ballin.

On Saturday we woke up late and walked around the city. That night we went to an FC Barcelona game vs. Sevilla. The game was one of the best parts of the trip. We got to see David Villa, and the best player in the world, Messi, score goals.

Cool fountain.
Indoor market.
Las Ramblas walking street. Has  a ton of street vendors.
NOM NOM NOM
Grubbing some fresh shrimps.
 

Panorama of the harbor. This was one of best parts of the Barca leven in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater!

Arc de Triomf
Cool fountain. I forgot the name.
Chillin with a woolly mammoth.


Beautiful beach. Too bad it was less than 40 degrees fahrenheit!


Heyo

This is the top of Sam's residence. Yes, he has a rooftop pool.

All you can eat sushi for dinner. The food was amazing but we ate way too much.

Game at Camp Nou!
Messi just after he scored.
 Sunday was my last real day in Barca. I felt terrible Sunday morning and was getting sick. I think it was something I ate. That day we chilled and went to Park Guell, a park designed by Gaudi. We hiked to the top of the hill there and had an amazing view of the city. Later in the day we went to see La Sagrada Familia. The church is enormous and pictures really don't do justice to how big it is. The next day I got up around 9am and went to the airport to head home to Copehagen.

I had an amazing trip and it was fun to see my friends in Barcelona. The weather wasn't the best for us but we made the best of it. I caught some kind of virus after the trip and was in bed for a week after the trip!

Me, Brody, and Sam at Park Guell.

Awesome view of the city and the water.

A poster on outside a tourist shop. We did everything on the poster.
It really shows how much we accomplished in the weekend.
