Barcelona:
I expected it to be more modern and look much better. After all, Lion says, Spain is one of the 1st world countries. To me, KL is wwwaaayyyy better. Or maybe bcoz we weren't in Madrid, Spain's capital, right? Actually Barcelona is divided to 2 different areas; the upper class and the working class areas. So if u know where to find them, there are a lot of beautiful buildings.

Sagrada Familia (Sacred Family) and more of Gaudi's artwork

Tarragona:
Has its own attractions but i don't remember going to any expect for one, ~Port Aventura~

Port Aventura:
The main reason I followed this trip is the Universal Studios Theme Park. This is where all of us had a GREAT time.



Spanish:
Haha. France is not the only country where most people don’t speak English. 5 days there, we had to use the basic Spanish words to communicate with them. At first, I was quite reluctant & shy to use Hola and Gracias, but after awhile I adapted with the situation. We shouldn't be rude right??? ;) Uno, dous, tres, lavabos, sortidad etc etc. Mimi had a memorable experience when she successfully use the phrase "este es para los vegetarianos..." Hehe.

Seafood:
It would be a waste if we didn't try the seafood here since we were already there, at the seaside. Although we find it a little bit expensive for a real filling meal (as everyone was on tight budget), the price was not so bad (our selections ranging from 4 to 20+ euros)
