near the bottom of las ramblas turn left along a side street and you come out in a square with cafes, do what we did, lurk around for a good table outside in the sun, drink beer, eat tapas and do some people watching - we found it a fab way to spend 3 hours!

Can't remember the name of it but the waiters and waitresses appeared all to be chinese!

I didn't find the Camp Nou Tour expensive, we thought it was pretty good value, we were there last year about this time, it was around 10 euros. There were four of us and we all love football so we spent a long time in the stadium. The official store at the Camp Nou is expensive, there are loads of shops in Barcelona that sell the offical licensed strips etc a lot cheaper than the on site shop.

Sagrada Familia is worth taking a look at, an amazing building that still isn't finished, work is scheduled to finish in 2026! Not bad as building started in 1882!

The metro is really easy to use and cheap, last year it was 1 euro per person for a one way journey.

As a few others have said Las Ramblas is very expensive for food and drinks, worth a walk down but too expensive to eat! There are plenty of lovely tapas bars and restaurants in the side streets that are a fraction of the cost.

We ate at a great tapas restaurant, it was just beside the entrance to Passeig de Gracia metro station, great food and reasonably priced.

Barcelona is a fantastic city, have a great time
