Is anyone on this board from there?

Or are you possibly familiar with the area?

Over the next two weeks, we're going to visit and hopefully have lots of fun.

Have a safe trip Kenny! enjoy the food

me = jealous

 

Hawt Fiyah! Hope you and the lady have a great time!

 

spain is a beautiful country, lots to see

enjoy the great food and great wine

 

Your going to a nice place in Spain. I was in Valencia for 6 months and it isn't great. The food was horrible and the people weren't too friendly! I guess they don't believe in chicken over there, eveytime I asked for a chicken breast, they gave me duck!

 

I spent four or five days between Toledo, Madrid and Barcelona on a high school trip, and Barcelona was by far my favorite - beautiful town, awesome people. You'll have a blast.

 

Dood... have an awesome time. Barcelona is an excellent place to visit in Spain. I will be visiting this December myself

 

IBIZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you married? If not then got to Ibiza the greatest party place in the world! Screw the rest of spain just stay in Ibiza!!

<Misses Ibiza...

Just read youre going with your lady! I guess you can still have fun. But kind of bringing sand to the beach...

 

wow, we're here now and it's awesome!

we went to nyc for a bit - got directions from BlueR and then got on a plane to Zurich, Switzerland.

Now we're here in Barcelona and went down to the beach for a bit to walk around - ate some tapas and trying to decide what to do for the evening.....

 

PLEASE take pix0rs of the food for me

Especially one of those joints that serve Serrano ham.

 

okie. we took some pics today.

btw, there are sooooo many hot girls here..... clicky pow coming soon!

 

The bull runs are awesome.

That's because chicken is a crappy meal compared to what they have over there.

No one does a ham/cheese sandwich like the Spaniards. Bocadillos FTW, as they say.

 

Spain rules. The food, the culture, the nightlife, the women, etc.

I lived just oustide Madrid (Torrejon) for 2 years as a kid, and have visited semi-regularly ever since. My Mom loves the place so much, she moved there in 2001 when she retired.

Barcelona is defintely a good place to visit as a bachelor. But you and your girl will have the time of your lives there. The only thing that sucks is the weak Dollar to Euro conversion. We get so screwed, I remember visiting Spain in the late 90's and getting 1 million Peseta's (ten grand) from roughly $7K US dollars.

 

jeesh.. someone's a traveler

 

no kidding, i've NEVER been outside of the U.S. so... so... sheltered

an old boss of mine went to spain and brought back some iberian ham. i believe serrano and iberian are very similar. in any case, this was the most exquisite ham i've ever eaten. i don't recall the $/pound...but imagine a price that would make toro sashimi sound cheap.

mmm tapas are ...

your trip sounds fun!

oh forgot to add....WE WANT PIXORZ!!! When you return

If it was serrano, I can see why you feel that way. Quite possibly the best tasting ham I've ever had.

 

Went to spain on a high school/class trip. Was awesome, unfortunately we didn't get to visit Barcelona.. Enjoy your trip!!

 

ok, well we went to Cadaques for 3 days and two nights... just got back to Barcelona.
