sparkysmum Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Bit of a long shot here but was wondering if anyone has done LLoret de Mar to Barcelona recently. Must take in both Sagrada de familia and Barcelona Stadium. The lovely Hazie and I are having a few days in Spain (Sunday to Wednesday) and thought we would have a day in Barcelona. Being a footie mad girl she will have to see the stadium and I would love to see the Sagrada familia. . However funds are limited and public transport is a must. Would love to hear from you if you can suggest routes / advice. Axx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia W Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I haven't done that particular journey but we go to that area every year (only a bit further north near Figueras)and have done for the last 25+ years. In our experience, public transport is very accessible, clean, reasonably priced and very good. Taxis are relatively cheap as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lavenders_Blue Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Have a whale of a time! I've been away with my mum for several city breaks abroad and we always have a great time - inevitably something bizarre, dramatic or downright hilarious happens to us. We have so many great memories of our little jaunts to the continent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkysmum Posted October 17, 2013 Author Share Posted October 17, 2013 Had a great time, fab weather, clean hotel and despite our incredibly tight budget we even manged to eat. Didn't do Sagradda Familia but Hazie got her trip to Barcelona Stadium. What a place But the overriding thing was that I had a lovely time with my daughter No teenage cheekiness or huffiness, just a real good time. This is not a reflection on my sons, but they are away so weren't in a position to come. Oh and can recommend Helen Fielding's " Bridget Jones Mad about the Boy" as a super quick, light read. Laugh out loud in some places but a bit "samey" in others. Axx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
