Barcelona City Tours Afternoon

We have to stay an extra day in Barcelona as our plane leaves before the
ships docks. Can anyone reccommend a city tour of about 4 hours for the
afternoon.

Just hop on the tour bus that takes you all around the city. You can
get on and off as much as you like in one day.

Howie, any suggestions where we might find either good escargot or paella?

Thanks if you can help.

Funny you should ask, cam. The best paella tht I've EVER had was in the
latin quarter of Barcelona, just off Las Ramlas. The restaurant is call
"Los Carricoles" (sp). It actually means "the snails." But I did'nt
have escargot there, I had their specialty which was lobster paella. It
was inexpensive, and it was to die for. The place gets very crowed, and
I don't remember whether or not they take reservations. But it is a
definite DO in Barcelona.

Forgot to mention that Barcelona is one of my favorite cities in Europe.
Be shure to catch every example of Gaudi's work that you can in the
city. Especially that phonomenal church, Sagrida Familla (sp?).
