At one end of La Rambla is the Mediterranean Sea and the docks. We spent part of our first day hanging out here, teasing the fish and watching them fight the seagulls for other people's popcorn.
Also near the docks is the most excellent wax museum, which was among the highlights of our time in Barcelona. Oh sure. Some of them are more or less what you'd expect.
Cavemen.
Christopher Columbus discovering America.
A really realistic model of Dr. Frankenstein.
And even a Wolfman that jumps out of hiding.
But the fun doesn't stop there. We also have...
Jules Verne kidnaping my bride and spiriting her away in his submarine. She doesn't look like she's arguing, and I can't say I blame her.
Michael Jackson looking slightly less scary than the real thing.
Bill Clinton in more damning company than Monica Lewinsky's – including the likes of Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, and Yasser Arafat.
The best by far, though, is this masterpiece in wax – E.T. brings a housewarming gift to welcome the gang from Star Wars to the neighborhood...or something.
