Off to Barcelona tommorrow for a well deserved 5 day break after working 9 days on the trot to get the time off work.
Really excited as it's only me second time abroad. realised I don;t know any Spanish apart from Gracias, and I can count up to 5 thanks to the Offspring(?) song.Uno Dos Tres, Quatra, Cinqa cinqa, Sieze
Going to look up certain phrases which I may need, like
Beer please
Ciggarettes please
Toilet please
Food please
I think that should just about cover it. ^_^
See you all when I get back!!

pics, take pics and post when you return. i need to live vicariously!

oh - and you can always try english, everybody there seems to speak it

yes, it's better to use english than spanglish. or... as some examples above .... "mangish".

Barcelona is hoppin' right now. there's the Grec Festival going on, and ... while most of the featured stuff is either sold out or expensive, there's a lot of street action happening. look for overflow from the hiphop "rooster fight" championship that happened last weekon various streetcorners the busker musicians/performers are elbow to elbow.

yay idio; you're going to have a great time. temp's going to be close to 30, though, and you may fry. sizzzzzzzzle
