Barceloneta

It has been very hot so we have been swimming locally at Barceloneta. Yesterday we caught a bus to the beach, which was much faster and fun because we could see where we were going. Barceloneta and Port Olimpic was all redeveloped for the 1992 Olympic Games, so now it's full of restaurants and hotels.

This is a Frank Gehry sculpture that looks like a bronze fish.

This is me sitting looking at the beach.


This is a sculpture right on the beach by Rachel Whiteread.


It's a nice beach to swim at because there are almost no waves, but there are people always trying to sell things: "birra, birra, coca cola, aqua"! It is a noisy beach...
