This past weekend was our first time really exploring Barcelona! Friday we walked around the Gothic Quarter taking in the scenery. There are so many shops and restaurants, we stopped in a few!
Saturday we went to went to La Boqueria and Sant Antoni markets. So much fresh produce, meat, cheese, and bread! I wanted to try everything! I settled on a fresh fruit juice and a spinach and cheese empanada. Both delicious!
Sunday we took the train to the beach town of Sigtes where meandered through the streets and copped some rays on the beach.
Overall, it was an amazing and successful first weekend! We hope to go exploring each night this week as well to maximize our time here! Today I have my first small group research meeting with Marti and Felipe. I believe they will both bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my project! Stay tuned!
