Day 1 in Barcelona

Well, we're here. We arrived in Barcelona about 8:15 am Sunday morning. The flight was OK. We saw a few movies (Journey to the Center of the Earth) on the flight. Got about whole 5 minutes of sleep so I'm pretty beat today.

When we got to our hotel we walked over to Camp Nou and looked around the facilities. The town looks pretty old as does the stadium and the grounds. The town reminds me a bit like Portland.

We did get to see some of the players arriving and driving don to the underground parking (Marquez, Bojan, Henry, etc...). Also got to see the players doing a light workaround on the practice pitch at the corner of the facilities. It's right next to the original Academy building that was built sometime around 1915.

After a little rest and unpacking, we are going to go to town and grab something to eat and get some local money (euros).

Well that's all for now. Looking for a good nights sleep.
