Port de La Selva to Barcelona

I made it to Barcelona!! I got up early and packed up my bike and left El Port de la Selva around 9:00 AM. It was a fairly short drive to Barcelona and I had my directions all planned out for getting to Monica´s. But, when I called her she said she was at the apartment we had rented and gave me the street name. It is just off la Rambla and is called Puertofrerrissa. I understood Puerto Cereza, so when I got lost in Barcelona I was asking all the motorizados for the wrong street. One of them finally straightened me out and continuing, but now asking for the right street, I went from motorizado to motorizado asking directions. This included two police on motorcycles. I ended up driving up La Rambla with the escort of two police and a "Jack Sparrow" on his chopped Harley Davidson. All of them helping me get to the right street.
