I woke up this Easter Sunday really late due to my lack of sleep the past week (spring break). Once I finally got out of bed, I took the metro to Las Ramblas and began my day. I ate fruit as a I strolled along the port, enjoying the beautiful sunny weather. This is what all the Barcelonians have been telling us about. Wandered for hours until I ended up at Santa Maria del Mar, my favorite church in the city. As I walked in, a baptism was beginning. 3 Spanish babies were being baptized, their families filled with joy. The mass was said in Spanish (not Catalan!), which I was happy about. An hour later, as I left the church the weather had changed completely and dark ominous clouds filled the sky. Rain poured down as I ran into the metro.
