A surprise during the tour

Hello!

Today I was giving a tour for the Utz, a charming couple that has hired me for one and a half days to show them the city.

After a fun visit of the Boqueria Market (I looove it!) we went to the Old Town and entered the Museum of History of the City, as they were very interested in seeing the roman ruins.
We were inside for more than an hour visiting the excavations, and they loved them. And when we left a surprise was awaiting us outside at Plaça del Rei: the whole square was packed with people in their blue uniforms! It was a ceremony of the Guàrdia Urbana, the Barcelona city police, that was welcoming the new people admitted to their accademy! (we actually thought at first that it was their graduation, but later we were told they were just entering the accademy).

It was interesting seeing them forming in lines, and hearing the mayor welcome talk. Although... I have to admit... I wasn't too happy to know soon there'll be more police around giving out fines! Haha!
