1
A few weeks ago I decided to go to Barcelona for a city break.
2
I set out on a Friday afternoon because my flight was in the evening.
3
I packed up my bags and headed off to the airport.
4
I wanted to catch a taxi to the airport
5
so I called up the taxi company and it picked me up about 20 minutes later.
6
I took off from Manchester airport which is my closest airport.
7
And it was quite fun because we flew over where I actually live so I could see my house from the plane.
8
When I arrived at Barcelona,
9
I looked around and tried to find where the taxi rank was.
10
So I took out my phone to look at google maps
11
and realised that I could catch a bus to my hotel and that worked out a lot cheaper.
12
The bus only cost 3 euros,
13
whereas the taxi would have cost about 20.
14
When I got to the hotel,
15
I checked in, took my things upstairs and got ready because I was ready to venture out and discover the local attractions.
16
I walked through the beautiful streets,
17
checked out a few of the monuments,
18
and then had some dinner at a restaurant that was near my hotel.
19
When I travel I usually only book bed and breakfast which includes accommodation and breakfast in the morning
20
but it doesn't include lunch or dinner.
21
I find that when I travel and I book full board
22
or all inclusive I don't spend so much time outside the hotel so my idea was to explore Barcelona,
23
try out some great restaurants and amazing food,
24
so this is why I only chose bed and breakfast.
25
On Saturday morning I woke up and I decided to join in on a guided tour.
26
There are quite a few free tours in the city.
27
It's not really free, you have to give a tip at the end of the tour,
28
but it's quite cheap works out a lot cheaper than going on any other type of tour.
29
The guide pointed out quite a lot of interesting facts about the city and I took in some of the information.
30
Sometimes it's quite overwhelming when the guide keeps talking for two hours
31
and in the end you can't process all of the information,
32
but I did enjoy it.
33
Then I decided to go on a tour bus to explore more places that were a bit further away.
34
I got off at almost every stop and it was a great idea
35
because then I didn't have to keep catching different buses.
36
I only had to go to the bus stop where I had got off and wait for about 10 minutes.
37
I know that there are some people who don't like these tour buses
38
because they keep pulling in to pick people up and drop people off and sometimes there is quite a lot of traffic.
39
For example in London it's not really worth it because there is
40
so much traffic that you're sat in it for most of the time.
41
During the trip I ran into locals who were quite friendly
42
and told me which was the best food to eat on the menus.
43
I tried out the local cuisine and some typical Spanish dishes and it really did live up to its reputation.
44
People often say that Spanish food is the best in the world and I would say it's in the top 3.
45
There are so many museums,
46
parks and hidden gems in Barcelona.
47
And I love the fact that it's right next to the sea,
48
so you can easily go for a walk on the promenade and see the yachts that are moored there.
49
The weather was nice when I went,
50
so on Sunday morning I sat on the beach for a few hours just watching the waves.
51
On Sunday afternoon I decided to go and see the Sagrada Familia again which is one of the cathedrals.
52
I'm sure that you have seen a picture of it before.
53
The first time that I went I couldn't get a good look at it because there were so many people.
54
It was packed.
55
After that I knew my journey was coming to an end
56
and I looked back on all of the things that I had done in those two days.
57
It's funny when you're on holiday,
58
it feels like you can do so many things in 48 hours,
59
whereas when you're at home you don't do that many things.
60
I took a look at my checklist and I made sure
61
that I had checked off all of the items from my bucket list.
62
The city really did captivate me and I knew that I would be going back again,
63
especially for a city break because it's a nice city to visit just for 2 or 3 days.
64
It's only a 2 hour flight from England so it's not too far for me.
65
On Sunday evening I packed up my souvenirs that I had bought and all of my things and checked out.
66
I was quite sad to set off for home because I felt like I could have stayed a few more days.
67
But I couldn't wait to get home to share about it with my friends and family.
68
When I arrived at Manchester,
69
I stayed over at one of my friend's houses because
70
she lives near the airport and we started looking at ways to backpack through Europe.
71
We actually came up with the idea that night and we've booked it for next summer.
72
So that gives us something to look forward to.
73
It's always nice to get away for the weekend or for a few weeks,
74
especially from the British weather which isn't very nice.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
