Tuesday March 29 was a cloudy, cooler day with a high of 16C.  Alano and I were both tired from our amazing food tour on Monday.  With the subsequent walk to the El Born neighbourhood and back, we did a record 26,000 steps.  We decided to take it a bit easier today and hang in the general neighbourhood.  We walked through Plaça de la Vila de Gràcia to a street with an olive oil shop that Paula, our guide from the food tour had recommended. Walk through Plaça de la Vila de Gràcia Oli Sal--- an amazing olive oil shop Lots of regional olive oils- organized by brand with different sizes We bought some oil and then saw Forn de Pa Fortino, a bakery that has been around since 1925.  Fabulous looking bread and treats. Inside of the bakery Outside We stopped at the Mercat de Llibertat to get a few things for dinner at the apartment tonight. Another entrance to the market Wonderful vegetables This fish shop had been recommended Dried fruits and nuts It is a wonderful mark...
