Sofía y Carla bajan del tren en Barcelona con sus mochilas. Martín ya las espera afuera de la estación con una gran sonrisa. —¡Por fin llegamos! —dice Carla mientras estira los brazos. —¿Dónde está Leo? —pregunta Sofía mirando a su alrededor.
Martín ríe. —Se perdió… buscando churros. Sofía suspira. —¿Otra vez? Siempre se pierde por comida. En ese momento, Leo aparece con una caja y azúcar en la cara. —Valió la pena —dice, ofreciendo uno a cada amigo. —¡Qué rico! —dice Carla con la boca llena—. Empezamos bien.
Se sientan en un banco cerca de la estación y abren un mapa. —¿Primero la playa o la Sagrada Familia? —pregunta Sofía. —La playa, sin duda —responde Carla—. Necesito sol. —Pero la iglesia cierra temprano —dice Martín, señalando el reloj. Leo asiente. —Entonces… ¡una foto rápida en la playa y después vamos!
—¿Podemos parar por más churros en el camino? —pregunta Leo. —Solo si no te pierdes otra vez —responde Carla riendo. Todos se levantan, sonrientes, listos para su primera aventura.
