Barcelona is a gongshow!

Alright.... so from the lack of sightseeing I've accomplished in this city I've managed to see a bunch of random crap! It's been highly amusing, I must say... so yesterday, we didn't do to much. We enjoy just wandering around the city, and we finally made it to the main street called Las Ramblas, which was got to be the wierdest street ever!!! So, it's sort of like the harbour in the summer, it's lined with kiosks for at least 2 kms! But there's something special about this street, sure there are kiosk of jewellery and souvenirs and all that stuff, some nice flower kiosks and wicked amazing portrait artists, and then you get those crazy street performers, tons of the painted guys, 10 times more creepy and random than the ones at home, there was mickey mouse making balloon animals, an Edward Scissors Hand dude, some man dressed up as a woman gypsy thing on stilts doing some crazy thing with a ball, god it's crazy! But the wierdest thing, is they have like make-shift pet shops set up, at least 15 of them, and they're soooooo random, we saw everything, they have bunnies, some smaller than my hand, hamsters, ferrets, chinchillas, guinea pigs, mice, degus, frogs, turtles, iguanas, geckos, pythons, tarantulas,
scorpions, tortoises(!), birds of all kind, some going for more than $2000, chickens. turkeys, pigeons (which is wierd because they're everywhere), and the wierdest of them all, baby crocodiles!!! Like what is going one? One, who is going to buy a baby crocodile, and two, who's going to want a tortoises that is going to out live you 2 fold? Hahaha, it's a wierd wierd city! But I quite enjoy it, found this amazing gelato place and apples the size of my hand, hahaha, I'm so easily amused, and also we made it down to the beach and I swear it was a hurricane, the waves were absolutely insane, like 20 feet, I watched them forever and the 2 people surfing I swear were on some sort of drugs to want to do that!!! Madness is all I can say. And it's also fun when you get hit on my crazy spanish guys who for some reason can't seem to figure out I know not one word of spanish... gooooood times! Anyways, I better head back out there in the 12 degree weather, I'm truly enjoying it, better than the subzero temperatures of Scotland, and the next city will be warmer and the next even better! Hooray, so ya I really should get going, we've got to figure out how the heck we are going to get to Valencia, hopefully there is a cheap bus or train, but who knows, lol, we're far to disorganized for that. Anyways, it's Christmas Eve Eve, but I wouldn't know, feels nothing like Christmas, especially when family isn't around, so I'm quite glad it doesn't feel like it, but I wish you all the best, enjoy the holidays and hopefully I will hear from you soon, lots of love, xoxoxoxoxoxox, miss you all,

Kel.
