La Playa de Barceloneta

On our first full day in Barcelona, we decided to head to the Barceloneta Beach.  It was a hot day and the beach was filled with people and vendors walking around with Mojitos :)

On our walk back from the beach we stumbled upon an adorable ice cream shop called "Eyescream and Friends" which had characters for each of their flavors and put candy eyes on each serving of ice cream.  Needless to say, I was thrilled :)

For dinner we went to a restaurant called CDLC which was in a clubby area of Barcelona near the northern end of Barceloneta.  The restaurant had a really fun ambiance and we were seated in a perfect spot next to the beach to do some people watching as we ate.
