I have a feeling the Monday might be a bank holiday in Barcelona. I know we used to get caught out by that each Primavera. Some museums are closed on Mondays in general as well I believe.
The cable car over the bay and into Mount Juic is open (or was last time I was there). That's pretty good and it brings you to another set of cable cars I didn't get to go over but also looked pretty impressive. You then get to go down the funicular to the Metro so it doesn't leave you isolated from the transport system.
If you are getting kicked out of your apartment on the Monday morning you can drop your bags into a left luggage in Sants train station which also has the train to the airport so go there in the morning first so you aren't lugging stuff around. Mercado de La Boqueria off Rambla is also a good place to grab both a decent breakfast as well as supplies for the day as you'll probably find that you won't get anywhere decent to eat before having to go the airport (which has some of the worst food in the city in it).
Standard Barcelona warnings apply regards pickpockets. Rambla and the airport train/bus are notorious.
Look at me vicariously planning other peoples holidays as I'm not going this year. I need help!

I was going to suggest Montjuic too, its a nice way to spend a day. A lot of places are closed on the Monday so I recommend a walk through the Gotic area, Montjuic and a good explore of the Sagrada Familia. Have fun0 -

Fills a gap for me between Mac de Marco and Tune-yards.
Am I blind or has this resulted in Diiv being dropped from the bill? :eek:0 -

Dammit
Most likely thing is that they're put in the Twin Shadow slot which would be sh*t for me as it's another toss up between them and The Strokes then :rolleyes:0 -
