Sra. Bills and I met up with our friend Tish and her friend Tash this morning and took the train 45 minutes south to Sitges, a city of 26,000 people located along the Mediterranean Sea. After a short walk from the train station, we set our eyes on the beautiful Mediterranean and walked along the beach for about 10 minutes before finding the perfect spot to spend a few hours. Even though the sun was behind the clouds most of the day, the temperature was still ideal. The sun peaked out every now and then, but we still had a great time. The water was chilly at first but we soon got used to it. The beach wasn't too crowded, and it was a relaxing day along the sea. It was my second trip to Sitges, as we also visited this beach town when I came to Spain in 1997.
When I was here 14 years ago, we discovered this great restaurant called La Oca that served rotisserie chicken. I went back there today for lunch with Sra. Bills, and it was just as delicious as I remember it! I'll post a few pictures of our lunch below.
We returned to Barcelona around 5 p.m., did a little shopping and called it a day around 9 p.m. We're planning to visit the Sagrada Familia and Parque Guell tomorrow, as well as have dinner at a restaurant one of our friends and former colleagues from Fort Wayne recommended. It should be a fun day around Barcelona ... and I'm looking forward to writing about the places we're going to visit and sharing some pictures.
Hasta manana!
