Torroella de Montgri

We arrived in Barcelona yesterday. Although it was about 5am in California and we were tired from not sleeping on the plane, we ventured out onto Las Ramblas in Barcelona. There we found the statue of Cristobal Columbus and some paella in an outside cafe.


Las Ramblas:


This morning we woke up early and took the train to Girona, where we rented bikes. Then we went for a short ride in the heat of the afternoon sun out to the beach. We just tested out the bikes (tomorrow we start our riding) - they´re light and fast but Ben already got a flat tire.

The Playa (or Platja in catalaƱo)



Tonight we´re staying at an old mill that has been turned into a hotel. After our hot bike ride we took a dip in the pool.
Hotel Moli del Mig:





Hopefully we´ll get a good night sleep tonight so that we can enjoy our bike ride in the morning!
