Another Typical Weekend in Barcelona

It has been a quite typical weekened in terms of its eventfulness and another social couple of days. Every weekend here in Barcelona though for me brings new experiences and opportunities.

Friday night started off with a visit to Barcelona's latest new English Bar "The Chill Bar" - a bar run by the local surfer Richard Doleman. Although quite a small place it is intimate and thus easy to talk to others.

Saturday was different though with a chance this weekend to sample some Outdoor Karting in Barcelona for a friend's stag weekend here in Spain. If you have never tried indoor or outdoor karting, it is great fun and whether or not you normally drive, karting is fairly easy to do. The organisers have it run such that there is a small tournament and mini cup for the winner and this adds some competitive edge, for those who want to push the limits.

Even when it is not so warm and sometimes overcast, going for a walk on the boardwalk is always worthwhile, as I never get bored of the smell of the sea air. Beats the smell I'd experience on my weekend walks in Milton Keynes! A roast dinner in Dunnes Irish Bar was a great way to end the weekend.
