We had to enter Montjuïc from the side because there was a huge conference going on called "World Mobile", basically hundreds of different people from all around the world in Barcelona...specifically at the beginning of Montjuïc representing various cellphone companies. We started to walk by MNAC (the large museum of Catalonian Art at Montjuïc), but didnt go in because it's expensive and I wanted to get to the top of the mountain with Lauren during the day while the weather was nice.
Since it was Lauren's last night in Barcelona we decided to go out for a nice dinner. We chose a Mexican restaurant that is near my apartment called "Panchito". We went around 830pm... which in Spain is VERY early for dinner... so naturally the restaurant was empty, which was perfect for us. So of course, we started our dinner off with nachos and margaritas! We toasted to an amazing (but incredibly fast) week, being together in Barcelona. After our nachos, I had fajitas, and Lauren had this Mexican dish that consisted of meat and rice. Because the portions in Spain are sort of small, and we were incredibly hungry (after climbing a mountain)... we decided to get more food! So we ordered another plate of fajitas, and a spicy taco dish and stuff our faces lol. After dinner I Lauren suggested we get dessert... which at first I protested... but then caved... so we got chocolate cake as our dessert, and it was worth every calorie lol.
After dinner Lauren headed back to her hostal and I went home, as we both had to get up early the next day, to ensure Lauren got to the airport in time for her flight. So we met at 630am in Plaça Catalunya so Lauren could get an Aerobus there. We said our goodbyes, and then Lauren headed towards the airport and back to Canada!
I can't believe how fast this week went ! But we were able to do a ton of stuff together, from site seeing, to Lauren coming to some of my classes with me, Lauren was able to meet my host family and the API staff and of course visit some bars too.
I hope there isnt too much snow waiting for her when she gets back to Canada lol...
