Baguette Time

Much has happened since the last post. We walked Las Ramblas all the way to the Columbus monument, and the turned right to find the Furnicular. I admit I misjudged the angles a bit, and we walked further along than I intended. But we did get to the Metro station and the Montjuic furnicular. As I had read many times over, we bought the T-10 ticket, which is for 10 trips on the Metro (busses too) and a much better deal than a single ticket. We got to play experts too. A French couple were trying to figure out the Metro ticket machine and trying to figure out what to buy in order to get to the top of Montjuic. Though we were as clueless as they, they followed our lead.

From the Furnicular, we then followed the crowd to the Teleferico, which takes you to the top of the mountain. 11 Euros later, we made it to the top. It is now about 2:30. We have been on the move for over 2 hours straight, without food or drink. It is time for something to eat and a beer!
