Day Four - Uncharge and Good bye

It has been a ridiculous three nights in Barcelona, and it was only right if I had one relaxing night where I could get some work done. So Day 4, ahh, what a beautiful day.

I woke up at 11am, and was ready to go see my friends one last time before I left. I wanted to hit all of my important spots before I left, and visit all of the final places that I missed, and so I did. I took a few friends and went around, first to Espanya. After that I passed by the museum, and kept going towards the Olympic Park behind Espanya, where the sun and blue skies couldn't of have given us a better day. A chilly breeze on a sunny day, the weather was perfect.

We walked all through the Olympic area, behind the Olympic Pool where a really famous photograph of synchronized diving was taken, I couldn't find the exact one online but this one was very similar, ( see Image ). After that we continued our trail and went behind the whole ordeal to a smaller forest / field where it seemed really chill to just hang out and relax. I was very happy to have finally gotten back to a place which I often ventured into over a year ago. The calamity of this spot warmed my heart as it brought memories of sitting under a tree and observing as the sun finally went down as the clock hit 10pm, and as I turned my final page in a book which was rendered uninteresting amongst the wonders of Barcelona. Upon returning from our long adventures, after passing by a romantic Parc de Montjuic where a few Catalan couples share their passion for each other as the butterflies go by undisturbed.

It was good to see the children still walked these soothing trails, and played with their parents in nature, still growing up in the environment which many cities have long lost.

It was good to see that the chilly breeze and painted sunset still remained, and that a year had gone by, but beauty still remained.

It was good to see everything in this city, and it is sad to leave it all so soon. I now depart for London for what promises to be a fantastic conference, and can only expect the best from such an exciting city. In the midst of all that I have traveled, I am more and more convinced that Barcelona has something that I can only wish other cities would yearn to imitate.

I'd say its the people, or the architecture, or their regulations, or their design, but it is all of that and so much more, that I rather say nothing, and simply reassure you that if you are ever in this city, you will understand what beauty truly is.

I am slowly but surely falling asleep as I write this, so it will have to be until later,

Good night,
Daniel.

P.S. I showed Summit and a few other friends my favorite Kebab place, and to this day they have eaten the amazing 4 euro doner kebabs. They are absolutely in love with this stores Kebabs, its pretty ridiculous. I personally ate one every day I was here, and even had two today. It is simply such an amazing meal, that even after 2-3 months of Kebab last year, I find myself to still be addicted.
