Welcome to the Hotel Catalunya

I arrived in Barcelona yesterday morning. Was it only yesterday morning?!? My hotel is a little over a block from La Rambla. Since arriving I've been on a photo safari. There are mosaics and tile work everywhere. Art Nouveau and Modernisme architecture are all around. I've toured the Palau Güell, located the two street lamps designed by Gaudí, found Miró's mosaic near the Liceu Metro stop and walked the length of La Ramble twice. Tomorrow I plan on following the Ruta del Modernisme through the city. I have found that the only problem with traveling alone, besides not having any one to turn to in my enthusiasm, is it's hard to take photos of myself.
