I was in Barcelona in the spring on a particularly bright day with blue sky showing behind some fluffy clouds. I took a long walk along La Rambla and ended up by the water. The Rambla de Mar was ahead and I continued my walk. There was a sidewalk where I saw a large sign describing the area. As I looked around there were many rows of boats in the sparkling water. It seemed to me that the water and the blue sky were exceptionally bright that day. It was a peaceful scene.
Look here for more sparkle.

I studied abroad in Spain a few summers ago in a small town near Madrid. I took a weekend trip to Barcelona and have wanted to go back ever since. Great pictures!

What a challenge it would be to get a sailboat in and out of there. But I’m sure they can manage it. Nice pics.

Beautiful photos Meg. I don’t think of boat harbors when I think of Spain but how silly since they seem to eat so much sea food.
I have an unrelated question but don’t know who else to ask since you are also on Word press. I have to many stored photos on my blog. I’ve paid for extra storage in the past few years but don’t want to anymore. If I erase the photos from my storage will that also erase the photos on my blog? I’d so appreciate it if you could help me with that conundrum.
