It has been a busy and fun filled last few weeks! I have gotten a little lazy with my blog so I guess it is time to write away! I went off to London to see Zach and we explored the usual touristy spots and of course went to some great food choices. It was a lot of fun and great to always see London. We went to the London Ice Bar, which was a very neat experience…everything was made out of ice including the furniture and the glasses of the drinks! We also went to a few shows. We saw the Michael Jackson show and Ghost. I loved Ghost and would see it again! We then headed back to Barca and I got to show him my life here and my favorite spots in town. We took a bus tour around Barcelona, which was great for me because there were still some sight seeing spots that I had not gotten to yet. We went to the top of Montijuic, which is a mountain alongside of Barcelona. Here we got to see great views of the city and got to visit the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games site…that was pretty cool! The following day, we went to Montserrat, which is a very popular tourist destination about 30 minutes away from the center of Barcelona. It was a huge mountain with amazing, beautiful rock formations that I definitely recommend seeing if you visit! The following weekend, my friends and I went to Tibidabo, which is another mountain alongside of Barcelona. It was a gorgeous view of the city and was the highest point in the city. The following night, my friends and I went out to a club until 6am and then headed over to our friends apartment by the beach and watched the sunrise. It was GORGEOUS and was something we have wanted to do ever since we arrived here in Barca. At this point, I had reached the “awake for 24 hours” mark and was exhausted, but kept going because we were just having so much fun!! We came back and took a nap until 2pm and then headed out for a very good and much needed burger at Pim Pam….sooo good! It was like a meatloaf burger…so good! Last night, Afrojack came to the best club along the beach called Opium, and it was insane! There are many celebrities in town and Akon, Shakira, and Paris Hilton were there…people said they saw them, but I didn’t. This weekend, I am staying in Barca and very happy about that…I have realized that there is no time for sleep in this city for me…Last night I got an hour of sleep in between coming back from the club and my 9am class. So much to do, with not enough time. My friends and I cannot believe how fast this is going and are so depressed we are half way done…I am excited to try and get some sleep this weekend and do some Barcelona touring!
