Hola...Siesta Time!



Currently in Barcelona -- and its actually not all what i expected it to be. I find that the city doesnt have much unique character...it could be any big city with lots of people and odd smells. I dont see much local culture, and there are a lot of random people on the streets.

The timings here work so differently...clubs dont start bumping until 2:00 am ... so what are people supposed to do until then? Its pretty crazy...so most people wake up really late, then go shopping or to the beach, then siesta time you eat and sleep and rest up...until around 10:00 when you go for a really late dinner, then a pub until the clubs open at 2:00, then party till 6:00 and start all over again. We haven´t done any of this yet because we end up getting sooo tired by 12:00...so lame!! But we have been waking up quite late and its more laid back and relaxed. Today we decided we are going to nap until about 12:00 am and then go out!! lets see if it actually works!!



I guess there is a bit to see here...we saw some very very random architecture by Gaudi...and tomorrow we might see some Picasso. Shopping season started on July 1st --we saw the prices change over night. Other than that i feel as though Barcelona is quite the dissapointment! I have 2 more days here...i´ll keep an open mind and hopefully my opinon will change.



As for trendspotting...Satin is in in in!! Longer leggings seem to be the new rather than the calf long ones and white skinnys are chic!!

There is a HUGE roach at this internet cafe! ewww!

i´m cutting my losses and leaving!!! EWWW
