Busy Barcelona

Today we will endeavour to see some more of the wonderful sights of this beautiful city called Barcelona. The big red bus will again be our mode of transportation around this very busy city, and with yesterday's cold snap behind us it's game on. As the sleepy heads slowly muster at the breakfast bar  to put their two bobs worth in regarding today's activities WADDA is plotting the afternoon session for Jack and himself. This W.F.A------- wives free afternoon will coincide with the ladies having some retail therapy ,where by Tom&Wadda will head for Camp Nou the home of the Barcelona Football Club  . This club is absolutely amazing with its a membership nearing 970 thousand worldwide, eat your heart out EDDIE. The tree lined streets throughout Barcelona are just so beautiful and so well kept we Aussies could learn a thing or two about streetscape. Camp Nou is the life and soul of Barcelonas football following faithful, this is the holy grail of Spanish football .With access to some of the inner sanctum of this amazing place the hairs on the back of your neck stood up as we wandered through the bowels of this fantastic stadium. With our raid on the souvenir shop now complete we cool our jets in an outside bar and just watch the world drift slowly by. This is what I call living the dream in what is a very very beautiful city , as we snap back into the real world wondering how the retail raiders are going.  As we head back to city central we plan the next phase of a great day ,FOOD and lots of it and this will be no aircraft style of eating yes this is to be a full on smorgasbord all you can eat for the grand sum of 13 euros, the lovely ladies finally arrive . With our bellies full a our clothes bursting at the seams we waddle home. This has been a great way to spend a day with some great people in a fantastic city called Barcelona, gotta go and catch some beauty sleep as tomorrow I leave this wonderful country and head to Croatia..........WADDA
