Protests, a Barcelona Welcome

Now that we are tourists, we are doing our utmost to do tourist things. That includes visits to all the touristy places, like Las Ramblas, Plaza Catalunya, and taking the tourist bus. Seriously, these are fun things to do.

On our return yesterday from touristing (is there such a word? ), we ran into this crowd of welcoming locals. They were so happy to see us, they were marching down the street with a welcome sign!

 

If you look to the right of the photo, you can clearly see the word, “tourista”! Wow, we felt special! They are welcoming us touristas! Unfortunately, when they moved a bit, the rest of the sign became visible and seemed to say, “no tourista”. Hmm. They may not be our friends, after all.

So, in an effort to be incognito, Diane went off to a Chinese restaurant and ordered, while Bill went off to Burger King and ordered. Yep, we just blended into the woodwork!

So ended another day as the Pinbert tourists in Barcelona.
