May Day in Barcelona

We have had a wonderful final day in Barcelona. However we were happy to get back to the apt. Where we are staying. Workers were off today for May Day and there were police and helicopters everywhere. We were able to see the sites we had wanted. We took an aerial tram over the harbor. Then in late afternoon we headed back on the metro. However, our stop was cancelled. We got off @ the next one and walked back. After we got home and sat in the sun on the balcony for awhile, a large parade of workers protesting government cuts, etc. passed by 2 blocks away. It seemed fairly calm. However, we will happily go on our early morning plane to Brussels, Belgium.
