Euro tour day 6

We had to get up and in the buses so early. Day six was mostly a driving day since we were making our way from Paris to Barcelona. But we stopped for a few hours in Andorra on the way. Andorra was kinda of a strange stop. It's its own country, but it’s so tiny, it's really just a city. Andorra is pretty much just a ski resort, but since it’s not ski season the town was pretty empty. It was also raining super hard the whole day so we spent most of our time going into shops and stuff. Since it’s such a small country, with such a stable economy they don’t have any taxes and a lot of the clothes were a lot cheaper, so was the alcohol according to Doris. which is why she also warned us there would be bag checks before getting back on the bus.

Finally, we made it to Barcelona. Already I could feel the warm weather bringing people’s moods up, especially the Latinos, who were all so happy to be in a place where they could understand everything and speak to the locals. We got our hotel and then went to dinner in the city. We didn't really have time to explore the city afterward but on the way back to the hotel after dinner William asked if we could take him to the Apple store so Lucas, Izze and I took him to the Apple store. It was giant! William was like a kid in a candy store! Apparently they don’t have an Apple store in Taiwan. Already I can tell Barcelona is going be a great city
