Harley, the geography is such that the house is in the hills well above Barcelona, while the apartment is on the beach well north west of the city core. By public transport it's easy to see that it takes time to get there. Plus, since one would likely have to go into the city and transfer from there...even if it didn't take 2 hrs as you say...GIRLS SHOP. They meet friends, they do many other things besides service losers. Plus...B1 and B2 were not all that far apart, but it still took 45 minutes. So relax, your escort fantasy is a bust. I've spent time in Barcelona...public transport, driven through and around it. That's my cred Harley...what's yours?
