Easy Riding in Barcelona Harley Days 2008

Harley-Davidson gathered thousands of motorcycles in Barcelona during Barcelona Harley Days, the official European festival celebrating Harley-Davidson’s 105th anniversary (2008).

I will be posting some pictures of this important event and I would like to start with just a backseat, a simple image to begin with as an appetizer. You might want to take a look at Harley-Davidson motorcycles from 1970 to present day or you may feel like reminiscing for a while:

Tourists in Park Guell Gardens

Japanese tourists at Park Guell gardens

This is what we call a clotted picture. You might as well try looking for Wally, or in this case, a couple of Japanese tourists in the middle of the exuberant vegetation of Park Guell gardens.

You don't see what they are pointing their compact cameras at but I can tell you: it's the house where Antoni Gaudi used to live when he was building Park Guell which is a museum nowadays.

Japanese Tourists in Canaletas: Wrong Directions?

Last winter these Japanese tourists seemed to be lost and were desperately checking a map. I hope they were not looking for Canaletas fountain, the illustrious symbol of Barcelona Football Club, the place where we go to celebrate special victories (hmm definitely not this year), only because they got it right behind. Pushing the bad joke way too far I would dare to say some Real Madrid fan gave them the wrong directions on purpose. No, no, forget about this cheesy gag and concentrate on the place, Las Ramblas de Barcelona, the beautiful promenade and its people always coming and going, people from all over the world, having the hell of a great time in the city, both repetitive visitors and newcomers alike.
