Barcelona trip part I: U2 concertJuly 7th, 2009 @ 11:45 am
My very great friend Ana Marie otherwise known to some as “Muffy” flew from Miami to visit me in Alicante and invited me to the U2 concert in Barcelona... We decided to stay a couple of days in the city of Barcelona since neither of us had ever been. We left by train on the morning of June 30th and arrived to our hotel to find out that there was a problem with our rooms and had to be transfered to another hotel room..
Once settled in we got ready for the concert and our adventure began on the metro full of thousands of fans who also headed to the Camp Nou stadium. Once there the excitement was obious and there were more people than you would think would fit in this stadium.. We finally got in and sat down with beer in hand to watch the concert.
The last time I had seen U2 in concert was about 20 years ago in Madrid when it was my brother who was supposed to go with my cousin but got sick at the last minute and gave me his ticket..And let me tell you they rocked this time as much as back then. They played a lot of their new songs and many of their oldies..
The stadium was completely sold out and there were people everywhere. On the way out we had to find our way to the metro with a million people trying to get in.. a great adventure I will never forget.. Thanks Ana Marie!!!!
