Mas que solamente ciudad, Barcelona. Arepa paradise

 






Tuesday morning we woke up to much more enjoyable views. The sun rose and the courtyard was pleasantly colourful. Our neighbour enjoyed his morning coffee on the roof terrace.

Unexpectedly, the day turned busy and there was no time for any gourmet joint. According to the Uber Eats there were arepas being made across the street and I ordered one with chicken and cheese. Fried. And it was the best arepa on this side of the Atlantic Ocean.

At five o'clock I put on my running shoes and went for a run. It turned out that Barcelona downtown is not the greatest place to run. Too many street crossings and far too many people out. I did a loop to Ciutadella Park and back.

Pintxos for dinner. It was our favourite snack during the previous trip - we used to sit in front of long counter full of different pintxos and kept choosing and eating. During pandemic they had placed a lot of pintxos behind the glass and you need to be have them handed out to you. Some of them however are still on the counter and you can help yourself. Go figure the logic behind it. Praised restaurant, but rather average pintxos. The chocolate chip cookie for dessert was delicious!

At 8:50pm, on the way back to hotel, we took off running towards the nearest grocery store to get some bread and fresh juice for the morning and I also threw a bottle of gazpacho in the basket.
