Port Vell Barcelona


Port Vell Barcelona, originally uploaded by andreaban2009.
I read somewhere that Port Vell is a yacht -basin. Now tell me if you think they were lying...just look at this....loads of them bobbing about in the sea. It's meant to be a tourisy area...but we braved the rain and wind and got to enjoy the view with minimal people about. And I got to use my second ( and dare I say much nicer ) umbrella. We walked along the wooden pedestrian bridge named Rambla de Mar towards Maremagnum where there was a spot of shopping to be done. The biggest attraction is the aquarium which is apparently one of the largest in Europe. I'm not a fish person so I skipped that.
