So last night, we had decided that we were just going to walk around the Gothic area and see what there was, maybe get some coffee and dessert since we were tired from the night before. Of course, that isn't exactly what happened...
So we met up in the same area we were in on Friday night and grabbed some quick coffee and then just ventured around the area. It's weird because finding the good places goes against all things you were taught growing up.. amongst them, don't go down dark alleyways or places that don't look safe. In Barcelona, that's the only way you can find a good place to go. So of course we were offered some more drugs, got some interesting looks from the various prostitutes, and did some more stalking of random people our age that looked like they knew what they were doing.
Eventually, we ended up walking on Las Ramblas and some club promoters gave us free passes for entrances and drinks so we figured we had nothing to lose. The club we went into, while not the most crowded, had some really good music. It was mostly American, so we decided to hang out for a little while, and have our free shots. We ended up burning off the alcohol in like the first 10 minutes because we were dancing so much. We made friends with a French girl (she was so much fun) and some Italian and Spanish guys, and then some other random people. We were pretty much the life of the party because we got everyone dancing and jumping around.. it was so so much fun. We were being quite ridiculous, and all while sober too..
The club closed kind of early (3:30), and we were going to find another club, but our free passes expired at 3:30, so we ended up wandering in search of food instead. Everything around us was closed except for some little market thing... I got some weird nuts and soda, and everyone else grabbed some random stuff.. We then made our way back to the metro, which thankfully is open 24 hours on Saturday nights, and got home around 5am.
Today after I got up in the afternoon and had a delicious lunch, I decided I'd go exploring. I walked for like 15 minutes on the main road and eventually found the beach. It's really nice, because its the port area and there are lots of restaurants and shops. I ended up reading on the beach for a few hours. There is like a rock formation that goes out into the water kind of like a peer, so I sat there and then watched the sunset. I just wish I would've brought my camera. After the sun went down, it started to get cold, so I walked back to the house, and now I've just been relaxing in my room.
