It wasn’t a long ride to the Hotel Abba Sants from the airport and fortunately they allowed us a early check in. After a quick freshen up we set out to see the city.
We covered a lot of ground admiring the architecture, stopping at small cafes, and seeking out the shady sides of the street. It’s hot!
By the middle of the day we stopped at a café across from La Sagrada Familia, the great cathedral and icon of the city.
The heat, exhaustion, and excitement had taken its toll and we returned to the room for a mid-day siesta.
