Spain for Some Ketchup Anyone?

Written by cd on August 23, 2007 – 12:08 pm -

When I saw someone selling cheap return tickets from Prague to Barcelona, I wanted to change the plan and travel to this city if only the date coincided with my upcoming holiday.

Do you know that a few years ago, one of the most popular hit in Europe is a song named “Asereje” or “The Ketchup Song?” The pop, feet-moving tune started a chain of sensation in many part in Europe and spread to South America. The main forces behind this hit are three spunky gals from Spain. 

Despite being  one of the first European countries I wanted to see, I never set my foot on Spain after three years traveling to quite a few places in this continent. Especially now that I develop a western-europe-who-care attitude, the prospect of my coming to Spain is slimmer than ever. Perhaps I should change my mind soon as Spain satisfies my life goals: improve my pitiful Spanish and experience the passion of life in Mediterranean. After all, my childhood favorite football club was Barcelona when Ronald Koeman, the Dutch footballer, played there. Though there are more places to explore in Spain, I am going to sick to Madrid and Barcelona as I know some people there and cross my fingers hoping that they will show me the city.

Buses and trains are popular transportation from Barcelona to Madrid, but flights are also available and lasts less than an hour and 30 minutes.

Ticket prices range from 94 euros to 320 euros return plus a service charge. You can find hotels in Barcelona for as low as 19 EUR and Madrid for a petty 25 EUR.  (Spanish version: Hotels en Barcelona)

From Prague, SkyEurope and Smartwings have frequentdai flights to Barcelona.
