travelling outside of barcelona in spain, get your train tickets and bus tickets the day of travel. if you try to be prepared and get the tickets the day before, it's a hassle for some reason. if you walk up to the counter an hour before the train arrives, its a breeze.

go to the market Boqueria Market in Barcelona - Boqueria Market in Barcelona and get some jamon de iberico, it's fantastic.

from barcelona, you can take a day trip to figueras and see the salvador dali museum which will blow your mind.

in barcelona, see the sagrada familia and behind it, eat at alkemia Alkimia restaurant Barcelona - Alkimia Barcelona

Thank you, this is what I was hoping for. I'll be sure to check out the market, the sagrada familia, and that restaurant. Do you have any recommendations on what to get there? My biggest worry is that I won't be able to read the menus (or what is written on the wall), so I will have no idea what it is.

What did you do there? Are there any good beaches or parks? Do you know anything about some bicycles you can rent at the metro stations or something? Are there any football matches or bull fights (besides the Pamplona one) that you know of?
