Day 57: park Guell

  Today we went up to park Guell which is s park that gaudi created. If is on top of a hill and therefore has the best views of the city. Not only does it have views but also brilliantly decorated entrance gates, fountains and water features, the famous lizard mosaic sculpture, weird and wonderful seats, rotundas and pathways. Gaudi's house is also in the middle of the park which you can visit if you like. We strolled along, past a cello and keyboard band playing beautiful music from Amalie. Then we strolled up the hill a little further. On top of the hill there was another band playing. But their music was a little different. There were bongos, maracas, a guitar, a cello and a singer and they were more bohemian style with their hippy outfits and energetic dancing. They were very entertaining and we stood watching and enjoying immensely the music and dancing for about half an hour before purchasing their CD.  That night i cooked up some pasta and then we headed out to the biggest football stadium in Europe to witness Barcelona beat another team who are clearly not that important because I can't remember the name. It was 1 degrees and yep you could feel it. But it was fun. We yelled and stood up and oohed at all the appropriate moments (and some inappropriate too no doubt). When we got back it was about midnight so we got ready to boogie at one of barcelona's most popular nightclub- Razzmatazz. The nightclubs don't kick off until about 2 am anyway so perfect timing. The club had 5 rooms each playing different styles of music. My fav was the live band in robot masks playing Spanish electronic.
