Ah well then you are going to the right place. Booze cheap and measures huge.... you actually have to tell them to stop pouring....lol..... occasionally I forgot to though ;D Transport from Airport to city centre.... I presume its Barcelona airport you are flying into? well then it takes about 25mins by taxi which costs 25euro plus an extra charge per bag.... (only use yellow taxi's as these use a meter and are official).... You can also get the shuttle bus outside the airport 4.25e single or 7.30 return (so depending on how many of you go... (two I presume ;D) you can decide whether you get taxi or bus..... oh and you get off at Place de Catalonga... that's the big square... (if you were there before you will know where I mean).... its not worth getting the train... too much hassle as you have to change........so best of luck and have a fab time..... and do post some nice pics when you get back....
