Barcelona part dos


Today we visited where the 1992 Olympics were held. The whole area was absolutely huge with the various stadiums and fields. At the entrance they had the names and footprints of some famous athletes . . . Michael Jordan, Pete Sampras, Lance Armstrong, Roger Federer to name a few. Inside the the track and field stadium there were several gato negros (just for you Jason), so Stephen had to get a picture. From all of the walking around that we have been doing from the beginning of the trip it finally took a toll on our bodies and we were completely exhausted by mid afternoon. We could walk no more and so we decided to come back to the hostel and blog a little bit. While at the hostel, five wild boar came up to the restaurant area. There were four babies and the mother. They are crazy looking animals that sound pretty funny when they are snorting.


By the way, for some reason it is taking at least 15 minutes for each picture to upload! It is a bit ridiculous, but we are trying. We would have lots more pictures if it wasn't taking so darn long. Hopefully in Rome, the internet connection will be a little better. Until then . . . adios!
