Not quite the froke that I'm use to but enjoying a refreshing slushy in the heat of Barcelona after visiting Camp Nou, home to the Champions league winners Barcelona football club.

After a very early 3am start in London, we finally arrived to a very hot Barcelona day, settled in our hotel with a beer to start the Spanish trip!! Hotel is in the main square and looks out onto the Gotic area, very central to get around and a mass take-over of the city of tourists just like us!!! Booked for the city tour tomorrow so lots of exploring to do and hopefully some tapas and sangria to keep us going.

On our way to the beach volleyball, passing by westminster and BB. we managed to take a short cut to the entrance by telling the Security we were pregnant..them karma struck and Paula got shay on

Four games later and the crowd was still in good form! Was a lovely day out in the sun watching some great games, 2 girls and 2 guys games... no aussies today but plenty in the crowd. Feel sorry for those girls wearing the tiny two pieces, their bums were regularly hungry... why can't the guys play in speedo's then??!!

Prince Albert and his Princess decided to show up at the beach volleyball too... they couldn't stay long but it was nice of them to pop in
