Aimless in Barcelona

Nothing makes you feel like you're on vacation in an exotic place quite like palm trees.

Except maybe seeing parrots in the wild

Previously, I've only seen a Quaker Parrot in my or my dad's pet stores  <-- shameless plug

After leaving the beach, I just walked toward anything on my map that looked like something. I ended up in Parc de la Cuitadella.

Since I was aimlessly wandering, this fountain came as quite a pleasant surprise.


I checked my map again to find the next closest thing that looked like something.


And stumbled upon something interesting a couple of blocks away...

Arcul de Triumf
