The weather has finally gotten nice enough to go to the beach and lay out in the sun. There's nothing better than after a day of classes heading to Barceloneta Beach, grabbing a sandwich and laying out in the sun. You just can't do that where I go to school in the Midwestern United States, unless laying out in the sun also means laying out in the cornfields. My favorite spot is near the W Hotel because I often find that its less crowded then it is closer to the clubs like Opium. One day I went to the beach and there was a sand castle competition going on. The picture to the right is by far the most clever sand 'castle' I have ever seen. I watch the artist construct the entire figure in less than thirty minutes and as soon as he was finished

he began to instruct the Barca figure to the left. I through some change on the hand as I was about to leave and in the next five minutes, three police men came over to the hand and stepped all over it. I was so confused but it's apparently illegal to beg for money using sand 'castles.' The past few weeks in Barcelona have been great weather to relax at the beaches and I'm not looking forward to leaving and going back to Lake Michigan when I've been used to the Mediterranean Sea.
