I'm off to barcelona at the weekend.
Anyone from there or who's been recently who can recommend anything that's happening at the moment, exhibitions, events etc.
I've been once before so know where all the sights/museums are. looking for some things to see off the beaten track.Also hoping to avoid swine flu too!

i loved barcelona.

Miro museum isn't all that great. Not worth the trek up that hill.
Cable car is a must though.
Watch your belongings, street crime is rampant.
