The Montmelo Grand Prix in Barcelona, Spain

The Montmelo Grand Prix in Barcelona, Spain

In the fast moving world of Formula One, it’s nearly time for the Spanish Grand Prix, which takes place at Montmelo, Catalunya, Spain on 27th April 2008.The Montmelo Track, which has recently undergone structural work to improve safety and race quality, promises to deliver an exciting race. The leading trio of Räikkönen, Heidfeld and Hamilton are being pressured by Massa, whose victory in his Ferrari in the Bahrain Grand Prix last weekend(March 30th, 2008), puts him in good standing to climb into the driver’s top three. Only three races into the 2008 season, there are still plenty of exciting ones to come, with both the driver’s, and constructor’s table wide open.

The Montmelo circuit is located about 30 minutes north of Barcelona, and can be easily reached by train from either: Barcelona Sants, Passeig de Gracia or Clot rail stations in Barcelona centre. Train Tickets are cheap,1.35 Euros each way, and if you are considering attending other events over the weekend, try buying a 10 trip bonotren, multi person ticket valid for 30 days.

Alternatively, there will be a special bus service operating. The bus leaves from Passeig Sant Joan 52. The nearest metro stops are: MetroMetro Tetuan (Purple Line, L2) or Girona (Yellow Line, L4) Bus tickets may be obtained from the ticket office at Passeig Sant Joan, 52. The price of a Return Bus Ticket is 6.00 Euros. The Bus will operate from 06:00, leaving every 5 minutes on the 25th, 26th, and 27th April 2008.

Those spectators who are lucky enough to have time on their hands over the weekend, should sample the delights of Barcelona, where they will find a lot to offer, a lively mix of history, culture and fabulous nightlife converge, for those who wish to explore this famous regional capital.

Over the last few years, Barcelona has continued to become an increasingly popular destination, and as spring heats up, so does the search for quality accommodation, with more and more people heading for the city. This influx of people can inevitably lead to accommodation problems, with demand often far outstripping supply. Rental apartments offer a new flexibility and price advantage over hotels, and they often work out a better deal than hostels.

Fortunately, there are many short term stay apartments available, but be aware that the quality and standards may vary greatly, and it is worth researching to find one of the better accommodation companies. You can check out our various accommodations at welcomeapartments.com office: 0034 93 443 6673 Mobile:0034 678 538 632. We have clean, affordable accommodation while offering a very personalized and caring service. You can check out our website testimonials and blogs from previously satisfied customers.

It was so much more than I ever could have expected!

First all I must thank you for the more than beautiful welcome me and my friend Ana got when we arrived late at night (two nights ago)! =) I must say it was so much more than I ever could have expected! Luca made us feel right at home in a completely strange city – and that is priceless!!

This weekend in Barcelona has been real cool and hopefully I will be back soon. And of course I will be back to get some more “underground” tips from you guys, thank you for everything!

Much love, Andrea

P.S I will be studying in Toronto during the two coming semesters so hopefully I will find the people of Toronto more than only “nice” =)

Vi kom hit utmattade och lämnar den underbara lägenheten utvilade och glada!

Vi kom hit utmattade och lämnar den underbara lägenheten utvilade och glada! Hamnen och staden är väldigt vacker och för oss som inte talar spanska så fungerar teceksnpråk utmärkt!

Med våra interrailkort och tunga ryggsäckar dra vi nu vidare med sikte mot Frankrike och Italien.

“I feel good da-na-nanana”

 Med vänliga hälsningar, Linn och Jenny från Sverige.

 

We came here exhausted and are now leaving this beautiful apartment well rested and happy! Barcelona city and the harbor are very beautiful and sign language has worked prefect for us who do not speak Spanish.

With our Inter-rail cards and our heavy backpacks we are now leaving for France and Italy in our sights.

“I feel good da-na-nanana”

 Love,

Linn and Jenny from Sweden.

Thanks for the accommodations! It definitely made our stay in Barcelona very enjoyable. We both appreciated you taking the time to give us advice about where to visit, where to eat and how to get around. Also want to let you know how nice it was to meet some of your friends.

P.S. By the way, I also have to say that the shower TRULY should be a tourist attraction in Barcelona! It’s fantastic!!! What an end to our Summer!
