Hola,

We're moving to Barcelona August 24th, and want to be able o hit the ground running...

Just wondering if anyone has seen any sites that have sort-of everyday pics of barcelona. So, not the Sagrada Familia and Parc Guell, but just street shots (or video) of L'Eixample, Gracia, etc. so we can get a better feel of where we want to get our apartment.

...Incidentally, we're looking for a safe but semi-cool neighborhood, with good sized / quality apartments, and near a train/metro stop so my wife can commute quickly to Barbera Del Valles. From what little I know, it seems that L'Eixample is a pretty good match, although it seems to not have many parks for the little ones....

Thanks, and as always, any thoughts are welcome!

yes, yes, yes! ...That's been my bible so far!


Just trying to supplement it as much as possible.

Thanx!
