Hidden and far away, tucked in the belly of Barcelona, is a store called IKEA in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat.
Bus and train are the way I get around Barcelona and the L95 was one way to reach IKEA. According to the internet, the L95's route begins at Barcelona's center, which I believe is la plaça de Catalunya.
But which streets from the plaça? Can you imagine how many streets have access to the plaça? Many! Why couldn't directions be explained so that a 4 year old and mature people (like me) could understand?
I was on a mission and I was NOT going to give up. I put the idea of finding IKEA aside for awhile, for confusion reigned for a long long time. (I'm too embarrassed to say how long).
I went about my simple but eventful life meeting locals, pesky tourists and discovering new places, like Casanova Foto.
And, finding the L95 bus!
Indeed! The L95 bus is almost in front of the Casanova Foto shop. Crazy, eh?
We went to IKEA that day and a few more times since then.
Victory!
