You can use tripods wherever you want excepting inside public places where flash photography is not allowed. You can take photographs outside and inside the Barcelona cathedral and other big gothic churches like "Santa Maria del Mar". You maybe will need something wider than 28mm for some places and you can try the film you like. You have to think that Madrid is a cool site in march and that Barcelona has a warmer climate, but you are not going to get very shinny days. I'd recoomend you to get 800 Fuji print film for inside buildings. It's the film I used recently with my M2 in churches at Firenze with great results. Barcelona is plenty of nice places to take photographs. A short list: 1.- Las Ramblas 2.- Santa maria del Mar church 3.- Olympic village 4.- Paseo de Gracia (plent of modernist buildings) 5.- Sagrada Familia (Gaudi) 6.- Montjuich 7.- Gothic village. ...etc For more details contact me if you like.
