I'm heading off to Barcelona for the Primavera Sound music festival in about 25 days. Soooo excited!!

Keep yer wits about ya, the street muggers are vicious. Proper gangs of the bastards.

I hear you. I've been there for 6 ears in a row and i've never had an issue. The one good thing about so many dodgy gits being around is that as along as you represent less of a target than those around you, you're pretty much safe.

One of my friends who went a few years ago got pick pocketed 3 times on the one trip.

OK we're looking at maybe Orlando. Universal Studios (ooooh yeah!). Can take trip to San Fransisco. Added benefit of seeing what the place is like as lots of jobs in that area for me. Hollywood. Sounds pretty good to me.

I love Orlando. Loads to do, get yourself somewhere on I-Drive so you can walk to a different bar/restaurant every night. I've stayed in the Econolodge twice, it's cheap, clean and in a great location.

You're aware that San Fran is a 5:30 hour flight from Orlando right? San Fran to LA is 1:20.

San Sebastian Jazz Festival. Easily Europe's. Best beach city, more Michelin starred restaurants than most countries and great nightlife.

Unless you happen to like theme parks of course.

I loved Universal in Florida so reckon I'll love the one on the West Coast!

Nooo, never realised San Fran is so far away
