Last Day in Barcelona

The next morning we got up and headed to the area by the beach called Port Olympic. We decided to walk to save some money and see more of the city so we walked through the park where they have the Zoo and the Modern Art Museum. When we got down to the beach and saw all the people in the water and laying out we decided that we actually wanted to swim and hang out so we went back to the hostel to get our suits and came back to lay out for about an hour and a half. We were right under the Frank Gehry goldfish, which is a giant sculpture of a fish covered in gold overlapping metal. Sadly I didn't bring my camera because I didn't want to leave it on the beach while swimming.

After swimming, we came back and showered before heading off to the Contemporary Art Museum, designed by Richard Meier. The whole building is completely white on the outside and inside and has a really cool interior. I didn't like the art exhibits very much, I was more impressed by the museum itself. The big open plaza in the front of the museum and the area behind it seemed to be a hang out for skateboarders as there were about 50 or more kids skating and hanging around the area. That night for dinner we went back to Tapa Tapa because we liked it so much and had more tapas and sangria. We then walked down La Rambla again for the last time before packing up and to get on the train the next day to go to Valencia.
