They're a bit odd, but the colours are so vibrant and stood out like a sore thumb, I was fascinated!
If only I could understand what some of the writing was about...
This was the only interesting stuff that I came across in the town I was staying...but on one of our days in Spain we decided to jump on a coach and visit Barcelona for the day....where I came across all sorts of lovely things....
This is the Barcelona metro map....just the same as everywhere else in the world, but is nice just to see another layout!
This my favourite picture out of all the ones I managed to take in Barcelona!
I found this series of illustrations near the Mercado de la Boqueria (Boqueria Market) just off The Rambles (Ramblas).
It was in a really random location-just above some of the large industrial bins from the market, way up near the ceiling!
But they're sooo sweet! The pastel type colours and crisp lines, it should be somewhere much nicer, but stands out sooo much because of it's disgusting location!
On the Ramblas, one of the busiest and most famous streets of Barcelona, they have loads and loads of different stalls, from fruit and veg, to souvenirs, to flowers to clothes etc....but then when I got to a certain point, there was LOADAS of stalls which were selling animals and reptiles and stuff!
It was horrible!
Loads of people around the tiny tanks that were far too small for them!
Pish! Not impressed!
But the turtles were sooooo cute!
This is another of my favourite images.....just on the back of one of the paper stands. Really simple, would have been nice to see it as a full thing, cos a lot of it has been ripped off!
It looks really detailed, but when you get up close there's not much too it....it's FAB!
Lots and LOTS of sweeties in the Ramblas Market! MMMMMmmmmMMMMMMmmmmm
And lots and LOTS of RED HOT CHILLIES!
How many eggs could you possibly need?!
As part of our coach trip, after spending a few hours in the city of Barcelona, we went upto the Natonal Palace and the Magical Fountain, where we were to spend a few hours watching the fountain dance to certain songs (shown below)
Becasue we went the Barcelona as just an afternoon/evening tour, I didnt get to see as much as I would have liked! and because none of the other girls I'd gone with have interest in Graphic design, they weren't up for looking around for that kind of stuff, but one day soon, or a week soon, i would LOVE to go back there and see all the many other things that I missed!
Barcelona was AMMMMAZING!
