[QUOTE="AshIreGal, post: 734649, member: 38250"] Well, just because reading others accounts has been so useful... I'm going to write what I ended up doing. So today is Easter Sunday.. quiet around VIC early in morning, when I arrived in.. I headed to tourist office. The man was in strange form ...helpful to others but I would describe the tourist man in office in VIC as arrogant. I may have been sensitive today but ended up in tears with his approach. L'estany he told me to check had accommodation in monastery. Not so . Monastery directs you to rural accommodation and that is seriously expensive. I went to a lovely cafe, and tried to get my head together. Santa Maria had accommodation but that was a further 27km and it was now after 12. I tried to see if it was possible to take a bus 10km out. It was ...but not until Monday morning. I tried to get a bus to Manresa in the end, but that would take 5 hrs... (Sunday and limited service). The lovely people in cafe across from a church on the way in, offered to drive me even though it was 40min out of their way, once they closed the cafe. (Photo below) Anyways..I hadn't thought about Barcelona... Had never been there, so with about 5 min to spare I ran to train station and paid €6 for train to Barcelona.. and got amazing hostel in super fancy 6 bed female dorm for €17 and tomorrow night €13..{it will Rain hard tomorrow and Tuesday is St. Georges day). Laurie..used the word BAIL in a post to me.. and bet she didn't realise at the time that this word would point me in the direction of Barcelona. But it was just the word I needed for today. Sometimes, life should be easy.. and in the end the sollution to finding a bed, was super easy.. from reading your post and now researching LT posts, I can walk to Monserette from Barcelona... Or take train and then walk from Monserette to VIC in reverse when the holiday season had came to an end. Thank you all sincerely. The walk this morning from Rota to VIC, was lovely... Saw rabbits and a young deer literally ran about 5m up to me through the fields and then looked up in fright...and went in reverse. [/QUOTE]
