Leaving!
Finally leaving port!
On board!
Checking out the ship!
Norwegian Spirit
Check-in was very fast! We got on right away!
Bathroom
They had a great tub and wood counter.
Other side
The other side of the room. Cool TV, the bathroom and you can even see me checking out the map of Barcelona while Bill takes pictures.
Primero Primera
Our hotel was called Primero Primera. It was kind of off the beaten path but it was VERY cool and had great rooms!
Hotel staircase
We it to our hotel in Barcelona. They had an awesome starcase!
McDonald's is closer!
I cann’t strees enough how much we were looking forward to McDonald’s. In all of our travels we have never gone to a McDonald’s overseas. It was a bit of a defeat but we were hungry!
Lunch
It was almost 2pm and we hadn't eaten lunch so we started looking for a place to eat.
Empty town
It was a weekday but we didn't see any people.
Neat landscapes
You'll see as we drove through Spain the landscapes change from desert to lush vegetation.
Pretty!
The photos doin't do it justice, how pretty it was to come over the hilltop and see the beautiful city below.

Half hour later
People were restless and already saying they were lying to us. It was just confusing why they lied. It's not like people haven't been toldabout mechanical problems.
