I'm gonna be on the road... the thought of it
makes me worry if I could last that long
Saw this on the way to the coach station
You can't turn left, right nor U-turn...
what to do?.. Move forward lah..
Day 01
I was surprise to see plentiful of highlands in Barcelona,
always thought of it as very flat
The weather wasn't too good when we first arrive,
was drizzling and made us all feel a little moody and grumpy
My travelling buddies Leonard and Chiu
Chiu is this big friendly giant that reminds me alot of
Alex Tok somehow... just the way he carry himself.. walk
and how BIG a joker he was
Our first stop was to Picasso Mueseum..
which totally bore the Banana out of me...
it was ultra mega boring for me, but thats just me..
and it cost 6 Euros!
Cathedral of Santa Eulalia
Met 2 of Leonard's 'girl-friends' who were already in
Barcelona for dinner
Dinner was S.A.D... Sux And Depressing
small portion and tasted like crap and to complete the
package.. it cost 16 euros per person!!!
A very disappointing for a first meal
To rectify the situation, I had no choice but
to seek refuge at Colonel Sandler's House
KFC!!!!
My crispy thigh saved the day
Barcelona's KFC rocks man! Can fight with Singapore
Day 02
The night spent in the 8-bunk hostel was very interesting
When I was lying on bed, I could hear a symphony in the background,
the sounds of beautiful harmony of snoring. It was a 3 piece band..
I made up for the 4th piece
Breakfast at Hostel- My favourite Kellorgs Tiger corn flakes
The hostel is beautiful eh?
Destination #1 Park Guell
Park Güell is a garden complex with architectural elements situated on the hill of el Carmel in the Gràcia district of Barcelona. It was designed by the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí and built in the years 1900 to 1914
The steep slopes up
From here, you can have a bird's eye view of the city
The emergent building is Sagrada Familia
The most famous building designed by Antoni Gaudí
Parl Guell is beautiful, Gaudi is a real genius architect
Gaudi Museum
This was the bed where the architect slept on.
Small and longish... weird designs
The famous lizard of Gaudi
This was one of the place where 'Dao Ming si' was looking
for 'Shancai' in Meteor Garden 2
Spanish lunch
Taste like crap + Minute portion + Expensive (12 Euros) = Very sad
Spanish wine- Sangrai
Sagrada Familia- The most famous design by Antoni Gaudí
The Kiss of Judas
Entrance door
The interior
Due to its complex design and 'no-rush deadline'
This famous cathedral is not yet completed and work is still
in progress since 1882 when it first started. Amazing!
La Rambla
La Rambla is an iconic and busy street in central Barcelona, popular amongst both tourists and locals alike.
Font de les Canaletes fountain
Folk tradition has it that anyone who drinks from this fountain will subsequently keep returning to Barcelona
Casa Batllo- Another master piece by Gaudi
Port Vell
Day 03
The Mercat de la Boqueria, or simply La Boqueria, is a large public market, with an entrance from La Rambla in Barcelona
The proceeding images contain explicit gore and bloodshed
Scroll down at your own risk!!
Whats that?!!? - Cow's tongue
Eh.. I think this is the lamb/sheep's head..
with the eyeball still inside
Even small piglet ain't spared
We had lunch at one of the stalls in the market
Beside us sat this Singaporean family that recommended
us almost everything on the menu
This old school Pizza Hut logo is long gone
in our land. Looking at it brought back memories
Alrighta, thats all for Barcelona.
Be heading to Paris next to meet up with Hailer, Jonathan and Meng kiat
Guess the journey there will be exciting since I'll be travelling
and finding my way there alone
Muchísimas Gracias!
