Picasso
Hmm. I cannot believe how quickly time seems to pass! It turns out that I am doing quite a lot of walking, which is fine, but my new Birkenstocks are not entirely broken in. We are currently staying at Gothic Point in the middle of the Gothic Quarter. Ashley and I wandered down towards the waterfront, eventually found a small supermarket, bought some food (meat is very expensive here, at least compared with other items), and sat by the water to eat it. Afterwards, we wandered back to our hotel, no longer needing a map, and then over to the Picasso Museum. Wow! I need to email my parents soon and teasingly ask why they never took me to all these countries. As I wrote in an email earlier today, it was a mind-blowing experience. After the museum, we met our friend Sibyl at Cafe Zurich, found a larger supermarket, bought plenty of bread, cheese, and other food, and ate for a while. The park where we sat was extremely dirty, with paper and rubbish lying everywhere. We watched some people leave all their things on the ground, but we cleaned up ours. The rest of the afternoon was spent finding a new hostel, since this one will not be open on Friday night. That leaves me here, eating a few leftover Skittles and planning the evening.
