Its been a while...

So yeah, I know, I know, its been waaay over a week since my last post. The last weeks have been filled with museums (Tate Britain last week, a few others last week), markets (Camden street market and Covent gardens), and fun times with foreigners on random days of the week. Oh yeah, and awesome canal walks!

So the museums... I guess you could call it a museum so I will, I went to the Globe theater on the 20th. It was quite the interesting piece of history. Fun to see what it would have been like back in the day. I cant wait to see a show there, I'm going later this month! The Tate Britain was an immense museum, some truly great artwork in there! Honestly all the museums are starting to blend a bit and it's getting hard to remember specifics, too many great things to remember at once.

So now, here's a big one I haven't mentioned on here yet, my trip to Barcelona! I absolutely loved the city. So much fun and so beautiful! Not much I can say besides that I walked Las Ramblas, the beach and the harbor, and made it up to the Olympic village and the huge fountain show thing. Oh and they have 2 euro shot bars (not just crappy shots either, they were like lighting the bar on fire and stuff!). Quite a fun time! I'll let the pictures explain though...

Oh speaking of the pictures, I'm just going to lump them all at the bottom this time caus I'm tired of trying to format this stupid blog to look right, don't worry, I'll put a description with each one. Oh and I totally failed at remembering all the names of the stuff I saw so yeah, I guess I'm just gonna have to look stupid (hey, this is all in one day, you gotta give me some slack).

Back side of big important building, taken from old important park near the Olympic village.

Me (duh) in the early evening right near the fountain, with a big important building behind me.

An awesome little beach side cafe, so cool, oh and the weather was perfect too.

I'm sure this building is famous and important but truthfully I cant remember what my friend told me it was...

Inside the huge market off Las Ramblas, they had everything there (even whole pigs for sale)!

Las Ramblas, the local market street complete with street performers!

Somewhere in Barcelona, always busy...

Regents Canal, the high rent district (aka, houses worth ridiculous amounts of money, I want one).

Royal Oak tube stop, the daily commute.
