An Open Day in Barcelona

Deliberately unplanned — your last full Barcelona day, kept open on purpose. Sleep in, wander, decide over breakfast.

🗓️

Today's schedule

Whenever you like
🗓️ ✓ Decided: nothing booked today
An open day, by choice. If the mood takes you: Uncorked Vines runs a 3-hour sommelier wine-bar crawl in Sant Antoni (€119 pp, tapas included, free cancellation to 24 hrs — bookable the day before; confirm it runs Fridays). Or a Penedès cava day, Montserrat, Girona, or simply more Barcelona.
8:00 PM ✓ Booked
🍽️ Dinner at La Balabusta
Israeli / Middle Eastern with Mediterranean, Sephardic and North African flavours; seasonal menu, natural wines, Michelin Guide listed. Ashley's friend's pick. Carrer del Rosselló 180, Eixample, ~25 min on foot from the apartment. Table for 2 under Thomas, yours for 1 h 30 (until 9:30 PM); leave the apartment by ~7:30 PM to walk it. Keep it early-ish — tomorrow leaves the apartment at 8:45 AM.
🎒

Remember & pack today

  • Comfortable shoes — however today shapes up, you'll walk
  • Sunglasses + a hat — for a day out on foot
  • A light jacket for the evening
  • Camera — Barcelona is at its best this time of year

The Gothic Quarter — yours to wander, no schedule
