Nitwit, I am not sure if you saw my last update on Barcelona because I posted it just before the onslaught of posts before the Iowa game, so if you missed it, here is a recap.

Saturday's Washington Post Travel Section has a big feature article on the food scene in Barcelona, along with some other tidbits:

www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/travel/a-churros-fueled-brunch-tour-of-barcelonas-gothic-quarter/2017/09/21/c7228c5a-81e7-11e7-b359-15a3617c767b_story.html?utm_term=.c35f0c2589d6

We did not do the food tour she discusses, but I can recommend the Boqueria food market and the Picasso museum, as well as anything Gaudi. The writer skipped the Gaudi Sagrada Familia basilica, which is an almost unforgivable sin for visitors to the city. Again, I recommend staying in the Gothic Quarter - there are lots of hotels there in all price and luxury ranges, and you can walk to almost everything from there, with multiple Metro stops nearby to take you farther afield. Pick and choose for the time you have there, and enjoy.
