La Rambla!

The most vibrant part of Barcelona full of tourists, buskers, live animal markets and pick pocketers! The La Rambla is about 2km long, which goes right down to the sea near the new Olympic area.

I couldn't understand all of the live animals on show. For a couple of Euro you could buy yourself a new chicken, fish, mouse and other animals that I couldn't even recognise. There is obviously a market for live animals, so maybe this is where the real Spanyons get their pets :) The La Rambla was full of character all day and night! Never a dull moment walking down there... but be careful as pick pocketers are everywhere. We never actually saw one in action, but we were warned by nearly everyone. Apparently they are very slick and you can't even feel a thing.
