Much cooler this morning to start, of course getting out an hour earlier made a huge difference.  We had an hour and a half of large trucks screaming in our ear and though we had a generous shoulder and they were very polite, it was not much fun.  Not to mention the small but constant climbs; much like continually biking overpasses.  The crops had changed to grapes, which we were happy to see, considering our consumption of wine and Sangria; wouldn’t want to run out!  Reminders of the Romans dotted our ride.This is the Arc de Barà constructed in the first century B.C. Our alternate route was still busy and hilly, but no trucks and an opportunity for a café con lèche y croissantin one of the small towns we biked through.  Mountains loomed large behind church towersa constant reminder of what we will face…… tomorrow.Passed beautiful vineyardsand green crops thriving in the rich soil.  We reached the edge of Sitges, way before noon and rode the tree-lined roads to the beach.We debated staying or heading on to Barcelona, 35 kilometers away, but there are some brutal climbs in between; decided to wait (while overlooking the beach)for the cool of the morning to tackle the ride…..that’s our story and we are sticking to it….. the mountain in the distance we have to climb tomorrow. Besides, this looks to be a very “interesting” town, picture South Beach, Key West style.Expensive homes and condos lined the boardwalk.Statuesand sculpturesadorned the streets.  The sights,architecture,shopping,and narrow streetswere amazing, but the people watchingbest served with refreshmentswas the best.  Unfortunately, the ‘best’ was embarrassing to photograph.  Plenty of cafés and restaurants to choose from for dinner, but after a month of pasta and paella, the smell of rotisserie chicken won us over.Gotta run now, as Spain is playing Portugal in football!  See you in the mountains, tomorrow.
