Window Shopping

We know that the main driving force of modern society is consumerism. If you travel and visit touristic cities and places you can face an even more aggressive form of sales. Especially with souvenirs.

But if you have some self-control and you travel by plane than it's not soo bad. In Arab countries, street merchants are aggressive and pushy and it can be very annoying. In so-called western countries, you can practice window shopping.

In Barcelona, tourism is a big business and on the main street called La Rambla, you can find all kinds of stores or stands.

I just picked a few for you to see how it looks like. This post would be way too long if I would show you all stuff they offering.

You need just an umbrella and camera tripod and you good to go.

Colorful broken tiles are the trademark of the city.

Another important business is football. In States and Canada, we call it soccer. I'm not sure which business is bigger here. Tiles or football.

I'm sure Europeans are familiar with the brand Solingen. Window with knives was much bigger but I liked the one with scissors more and it also doesn't look so aggressive.

Don't get me wrong here. We all know that exceptions make the rules.

But when we talking about sweets there are no exceptions.

The stand from Cassa Batllo.

Maybe in a year or two from now, we'll be able to enter this store and pick one.

Who knows? Never say never.

But for now we better fly low.

You should definitely ask your dentist for an advice before entering.

Oh, my friend just called me. His grill is hot and ready. Should I call my dentist and ask him: Sweets or BBQ?

We already know the answer and I always follow his advice.

Just a quick stop at the liquor store and we're ready to go.

Enjoy your weekend, my friends.
