Gava, Barcelona is perfect






Is Gava, Barcelona the perfect place? It comes close.

We are staying in a very nice neighborhood with lots of apartments, some homes. The homes looks expensive. Everything is behind a gate here. Break ins are a problem in Spain and can be violent. 

The neighborhood has these tree lined streets. I think they are called Aleppo pines.  The beach is literally about 4 blocks away. It is a very clean sandy beachfront. Not crowded. There are people surfing paddle boarding, fishing. Lots of restaurants and bars. 

Today I walked to the business district. Along the way the mountains that seemed far away, were closer. Beautiful tree lined mountains were visible in more detail. 

Along the way there was a canal that was being used for recreational sports like boating.  They had this set up with a cable that was oval in shape and long. In the middle were ski jumps. You could grab on with water skis on and go up the ramps and jump holding on to the cable. Hard to describe but very unique. 

The business districts has all kinds of stores, restaurants, movie theatre. Very nice. Nice big grocery store in the mall. Took a bus back to the airbnb. The bus stops right in front of where we are staying.

Went dow to the beach to watch the sunset. Probably do that every night.
