Sauntering The Streets of Barcelona

We worked with a wonderful crew to Barcelona. One of the flight attendants offered to show us around the city. The first thing she wanted to show us is how to use the bus to get to the main center of Barcelona.

The bus was actually very easy to use. I think now Marianne and I can maneuver the bus system on our future trips to Barcelona.

Such a beautiful day walking La Rambla , considered the most well known street in central Barcelona.

We stopped at the La Boqueria, which is one of the best markets in the world.

The colors, scents and spirit of everyday Spanish life burst from the busy aisles of this famous food market. We had a nice lunch at the market and then continued our walk to the water.

Miraestels

Seeing this statue in the water was captivating. I found out it is called Miraestels, a floating icon, becomes guardian of the waters. With its watchful presence, it urges us to care for and respect the sea. Miraestels staring into heaven indicate a double vigilance.

It certainly was a beautiful day by the water.

Our crew split up, Brit stayed with us and the other 2 girls headed back to the hotel. We now needed to saunter the streets in the Gothic Quarter. It’s a charming area filled with trendy bars, clubs and restaurants.

We found a great spot for a much needed beverage.

We enjoyed our time in the Gothic Quarter. Thanks to Brit, it was an easy trip back to our hotel by bus.

Our trip to Barcelona was a lot of fun, mainly do to the kindness and fun Flight Attendant Crew that we worked with. The Flight Attendants that you work with can either make or break a trip! You never know until you walk on the plane what kind of flight attendants you will be working with.

We arrived back into New York around 2:30pm and went to the Crashpad. We were very excited to see some of our SFO family staying at the Crashpad with us that night. Making our Crashpad feel like our 2nd home, we all enjoyed happy hour in the backyard. Great way to end a great day!
