25-Apt-2022   /   Arrival at our final port for the cruise.
 

Today we needed to make arrangements for our touring over the next 4 days:
  1 - Get off the Riviera, get through Customs, and get checked our baggage.
  2 - Find a taxi and get checked into Hotel Sagrada Fimilar, reservations already made.
   All went well except that our room was not available. They stored our baggage.
  3 - The desk staff gave us suggestings on how accomplish the touring that we planned.
   A - How to get to the Cathedral de Barcelona rather than sitting in the lobby.
   B - How to get to Figueres and the Dali Theatre-Museum on the 26th
   C - How to an early tour of the Sagrada Famila on the 27th.
   D - How to get tickets for the Barcelona City Tour, On-Off but.

By noon we were off for the Cathedral de Barcelona:
  - Down to Sagranda Fimila to catch the L2 Metro, Subway.
  - We had to learn how to use their ticket machine and entry gate.
   + A frindly local helped to get into the Metro and onto the correct line.
  - At the Passeig de Gracia Station we got off and walked to the Placa de Catalunya
