Give me Everything Tonight (Barcelona)




































Saturday- Started my day getting ready to go to Park Guell with some friends. Unfortunately, we could not find each other so I thought I had got there 20 minutes late but they got there like an hour late so we missed each other without even knowing it. In this case I would usually not go by myself but I decide to explore the city alone, I'm in Barcelona, need to get as much in as possible. I made my way to Park Guell on the metro, when I arrived to my destination I did not know where to go so I just followed the crowd that was in front of me. Luckily they were all going to Park Guell, two blocks down and around the corner I saw...I looked up and saw the steep narrow hill we have to climb to get to the park. It took about 20 minutes to get to the top of the hill which was guided by some escalators, whihc did not take you directly up to the park, you had to get on the escalator for some then walk the other part, this happened about three times so walking and escalator would switch on and off. As I took the last steps to get to the park I noticed the beautiful scenery behind me of the city of Barcelona. Walking down the path that make their way around the park I was constantly taking pictures of everything. I had never seen a park so incredible as this. All the Gaudi architecture around the park, all the green plants around the park and some amazing musical talents as well. The park took about two hours to get through the whole thing, it has many entrances and that is why people start in different parts so there is no right or wrong way to go, you just make sure you get to see everything. After the park I made my way to the souvenir shop and then made my way back home. Later in the night I got ready to meet up with some friends to enjoy the nightlife Barcelona as to offer. We met up and went to two bars, Taverna and Espit Chupitos. After the bars we headed down to the beach clubs where there are dozens of clubs and you will find what you like. We hit up a few clubs about 4 or 5 and to my surprise a lot of them played reggaeton, bachata, and hip hop. This is my spot in Barcelona. After dancing for a while we ended up leaving at 5:15am but when we were getting ready to go home I decided to go back by myself and see the sunrise on the beach as that is what one of my goals here is. I went back and hit some more clubs up for like the last 45 minutes and then went on the beach and saw the sunrise. The beach was incredible and there were quite some people there. After the sun rose I made my way back home and went to sleep. 10 hours later I wake up and its 5pm. Well there are pics posted to see how my day went. Hope you Enjoy!!!
