Well the body clock thinks I am getting up for work.
It's 625am. No breakfast for 90 minutes and half a donut , which was a full donut when I went to sleep, coould soon be no donut.. Just checked out facebook and the kids had rice, garlic bread and veggies for dinner because they can't defrost meat. I am so proud.
Ran out of toilet paper. Just wish it was me that could have the opportunity to use it. I think today is a tour of football stadium followed by the obligatory trip to markets. We are contemplating making sandwiches from last nights dinner leftovers which have been sitting on a chair in the room for 10 hours. I would do anything to get regular, and food poisoning is now an option. Then I talked to a local about my problem. He suggested praying to the god of the Messi toilet. This I did and now all is well. After our first trip on the Metro, we got to the place the markets were meant to be. We looked and couldn't find them so naturally went into the Barcelona version of Payless shoes. Did I need pink running shoes? No Did I buy them? Of course. Only 20 euros. That was 18 for the shoes plus the local gay fine.
We finally finished spending the college money and walked a little when we saw a street sign to the markets. Yay. Managed to spend a lot of time and not so much money before we headed to Camp Nou, home of Barcelona football. The self guided tour was great. We got to see where our seats to the game were when the cloud cover cleared and spent a lot of time looking around the stadium. Sure its no Hammondville Park, but they are working on it. Messi dropped by to ask questions about my best left footed goals, but had to leave after an hour when he realised that he could never reach the lofty heights of my "the goal". The gift shop was too expensive so I will do some bartering to get some shirts.
Having left at 9am it was now 6pm. All we had eaten since breakfast was a tiny pastry and a smaller cheese sandwich. Of course this should have lead to a sensible meal but the all you can eat buffet across the road sucked us in and I lie on the bed typing with another sore stomach from over eating. Its even too painful to try out the new pink shoes. Not sure whats on tomorrow but i know it will start with eating times four, followed by walking and more markets.
