Today we went to Las Ramblas for the second time on our trip. Las Ramblas is a road, er, a street. This is not the street for cars. If cars drove on it, millions of people would get crushed. Human statues, souvenir shops, and other small shops like ones selling pets, flowers, candles, and more filled the street. Just guess how expensive the most expensive candle was. 190 euros. I mean, the candle was huge and in the shape of Buddha and all, but the wax is gonna melt. Anyways, we walked halfway, took a vote, and decided to explore some streets next to Ramblas.
There were many souvenir shops on the streets next to Ramblas, and although the initial prices were the same, these people were willing to bargain, unlike the people at Ramblas. As Dad put it, the Ramblas shops just stuck prices on the items and waited for the thousands of costumers to buy them. But places near Las Ramblas don't get as many costumers, therefore they are willing to drop their prices. Josiah bought a shirt and Liam bought a magnet at one of the souvenir shops.
We walked some more and then decided to eat lunch at a chicken place. It was a real Spanish dinner. A Spanish dinner is when you pay 1 price for a drink, appetizer, main meal, and dessert. Well, I won't tell you everything we got, but the thing I wanted to say was that Dad ordered rabbit and he got served a quarter of a whole rabbit! Like, with the head and arms and everything. Actually, Josiah got a funny video of Dad playing "little bunny fu fu" with the rabbit:

Yes, and I ordered pescado (fish)--it was served without the eyes. Much more appetizing, and it was delicious!
Much more appetizing? If it did have the eyes, we could have made another video of "little bunny fu fu" falling into an ocean and landing on "little fishy fu fu".
