Never one to give up a holiday, i've been rather restrained this time and for Aunty's 40th birthday, we decided to visit Barcelona only while the rest went on the cruise. Oddly, there was no queue at EasyJet, that has never ever happened to me. There wasn't a queue at security either, at this stage I was seriously wondering what had happened in the world.
Bristol airport has completely changed into a shopping mall with more shops than seating to encourage you to shop until you drop. Luckily they had an accessories shop which came in very handy for dressing up Aunty for her birthday night out :) Bunny ears, a sash and a wand.
As always, it was the EasyJet rush to sit together, even though the plane wasn't full. We had our obligatory stag and hen groups, and then we were sat down for 2 hours. It's ridiculous to say but 2 hours seems like nothing, it took us more time to get off the bus, walk down the Ramblas and figure out how to get into our appartment after walking around and around and around, in an undesirable part of time, in the heat...funnily enough, we didn't have much conversation going on. Add in the smell of sewers, as you get with a lot of hot med countries... Renting appartments is definitly the way to travel, you are self cetering, and don't need to be pleasant to anyone :)
