Barcelona at its Finest

I share with you a post called "Tranquility".

These pictures were taken with a Dimage Z1 and I've saturated a few of the photos.

Here’s Barcelona at its finest.

What better way then to spend a day in bed at the park.

Or eat a meal in peace.

Or to hide behind the flowers, away from ME?

Wondering what the day will bring.

The envy of all women, to be adorned by a sea of beauty.

Even the city revels in its own reflection.

But as for me, I walk in the shadows of light, looking for YOU!

Sliding Straight to Fun

When in Barcelona, let me give you a tip. Take bus 92 from my origin point (if you like) at plaça de Gal.la Placidia.

The bus takes about an hour and 15 minutes from beginning to end and a bargain cost of a US dollar.

Along the route you will see these wonderful pockets of Catalan living, more colorful graffiti then you’ve ever imagined,

And,

You can hop off to see Gaudi’s Parque Quell or the Yelmo theater on carre Icaria, where movies are shown in their original version.

If you don’t want to get off or you need a sunny rest after a busy day of sightseeing and movie watching, be sure to bring your bathing suit, sun glasses and sun blocker for bus 92’ s final destination is playa bogatell.

There’s room on this bench or the world’s longest slide, depending if you are a mature child or juvenile grown-up.

Oh! What the hey!

Be both.
