Day 100: Las Ramblas


I started the day with Churros con Chocolate then I headed to Las Ramblas.

Las Ramblas is a long street that has an assortment of vendors and entertainment. It ranges from animals to food to clothing.

Yes, I spent my whole day there. I remember wandering around the nooks and crannies and going into the boqueria pictured above. I remember having such a sense of nostalgia because it reminded me of the markets in the Philippines that my family and I used to go to.

I also had one of the best meals I had in Barcelona which is from this restaurant called Elisabets. I had paella for starters then carne magra con tomate y cebolla plus postre (dessert) and bebida (wine) for 10.75 euros. Can you imagine? Funny thing to is that once I ordered the paella, everyone ordered it as well because they saw that it was freshly cooked and not microwaved.

I also saw a nativity scene that just took my breath away.
