Barcelona

From a short visit in November 2003 - suggested first tour starts near Olympic site and beach; take cable car to Miro Museum on Montjuic; walk down through park to Mies Pavilion and Caixa. 2nd tour starts at park Guell, walk down via Passeo de St Joan as sun is setting, eat at fish restaurant in Olympic area. Tour 3 is infinitely variable around the old town area, avoiding La Rambla except to cross! Tour 4 is a Gaudi pilgrimage, off La Rambla, up Passeo de Gracia then to Sagrada Familia.
