That place is unbelievable.
Thanks for the tip. My girlfriend is really pushing for something 'in the city' as oposed to the beach but i will look into it further. What is Parc Guell?

LOL....Jox....id like to think that if i didnt travel so much and saved my money and worked more i would have a car collection like some of the folks on here - but alas - i dont and i will NEVER stop traveling the world as long as i have a Visa and AMEX in my pocket hahahahahaha

As for the beers - i will buy you the first 15. Then the rest are on you!!! You should certainly meet up for a night or two in Barcelona. That would be awesome.

It was designed by the Catalan architect Antoni Gaud́ and built from 1900 to 1914. It is a garden complex situated on the hill of El Carmel from where you have great views of the city.

Could post pics forever but it's amazing, you won't regret it. I lived in Barca for a while right in the city so only stayed in hotels on the beach can't be to much more help than that. I cannot believe she would rather stay in the city though, you should lobby against that.

If you want to spot some nice cars, Hotel Arts parking is where the best cars are at.

Barcelona is an amazing time! Hit the waterfront, Park Gaudi, and the rest of Gaudi's buildings....seriously amazing stuff....as for the night-life I don't remember much

Also watch out for pick-pockets...really bad over there

I also recommend the Hotel Arts. It's a really nice place and they have lots of fresh flowers so the hotel smells amazing.
