Trains, Trains, and more trains

We took advantage of a long layover to explore the town of Avignon

July 20th
We woke up early this morning (5am, the earliest we have had to yet) to catch our 5:58am train toward Barcelona. After catching this train we had several stops and train changes to make throughout the day in order to make it to our final destination of Girona, Spain. Thankfully we made all of our stops and train changes without major difficulty (we did have a mechanical issue on one of the trains but that got fixed and we made it to the next station just in time.) After arriving in Girona at about 6:30pm we hit up the information desk at the train station to find a place to stay and the sites to see. After looking at our options for places to stay we decided to opt out for a small bed and breakfast which offered us a small room and breakfast for 40 Euros a night! Tomorrow we plan on seeing the city and determining our plans from here.
