first of all i would like to say thank you ,
for all the advice.....welll it all went out of the window 
there was a bus strike, no tourist tours 
but the underground metro, is superb (and a tenth of
the cost , for a tour , and more fun  )
went to the neau camp (they were playing celtic that
day, so the town was full of scots  .....but they know
how to create a good atmashfear (  do they drink )
anyway ....bob p. you said go to las ramblas , i did
at the bottom of las ramblas , is a statue....surrounded
by lions etc......who is on top off this
a pic from the statue..off one of the lions
the gaudie temple (helen )
and the towers (still building it..after all this time )
there is 7 towers now..apparently there will be 12 when it is finished,
one for every apostle......
 shit did i say apostle............
pftuall (ps congrats mellisa )

The guy on top of the monument at the bottom of Las Ramblas is Christopher Columbus. Guess the Spainards want credit for discovering the americas.
Glad you had a good time. It's a great city!

Yorky, the pics are wonderful, what a cool place. How in the heck did you get to where you are in that first pic?
I am not good with heights and that one gave me sweaty palms.
Glad you had a great time.

Those pics brought back some fond memories. I went to Barca in 2005 and loved it! I was only there for 4 days but have always wanted to go back.
Did you climb the stairs to the top of the Sagrada Familia? I took the lift - it was far too high!
Looks like you had a fab time. Great pics too!!
