katibug Posted June 5, 2018 #29 Share Posted June 5, 2018 After the no sleeping, big lunch and riding around in a car, I was falling asleep. I booked Avenida Palace and the La Sagrada suite 11 months in advance, I loved everything except the no air conditioning. Sent from my iPad using Forums I work for a hotel company, and we partner with Avenida Palace, so this made me smile. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare alrichards4003 Posted June 6, 2018 Author #33 Share Posted June 6, 2018 How overwhelming was the ship? I feel it would really clash with the shoreexcusions I like the big ships and we did Vista so I don’t think I was overwhelmed, if I had more time we may have gotten to everything. After the long days, I would sleep for 45 minutes and then be back at it. It was a lot but great memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After lunch we took a cab, I thought I said museum of contemporary art, but we ended up at the museum of Catalan art, it was my second choice and the view was incredible.
