Arriving In Barcelona
Tuesday - October 19th 2021
After we got up, we packed our stuff and then we took the bus to the terminal.
We had planned more time for check in due to corona measures, however it took only a couple of minutes and so we had plenty of time for breakfast. We
ordered a coffee and a pretzel each and waited for our flight to depart.
Around noon we landed at Barcelona Airport and once we passed the corona
security check, we searched for the train station. Our initial plan was to
take the train into the city and from there to catch the train towards
PortAventura. When we arrived in the city, we realized the next train to the
themeparks was departing in the late afternoon. So we left our luggage at the
train station and walked to the next vegan restaurant at a nearby shopping
center. The restaurant was called
Supervegan and after we both got a
delicious vegan burger, we headed to Barcelona Olympic Park. There we just
walked around and stopped at an outdoor bar for drinks until it was time to
catch the train to Salou.

The train ride from Barcelona to
PortAventura near
Salou took about two hours and around 6:00pm we arrived at the resort. At
first we wanted to walk to our hotel, but unfortunately there weren't any
side walks. That's why we took a taxi to our hotel. At PortAventura we
stayed at the
Gold River Hotel, one of the few hotels that was open during off season. Check-in was quick
and easy and once we dropped off our luggage in our room, Claudia and I got
a welcome beer at the hotel bar. Later we got hungry and ate at The Opera,
one of the two hotel restaurants. We ordered a veggie wrap and a veggie
burger and both dishes were fine.
