Story Transcript:

Ca: Sobre l'escenari de la viu i bulliciosa Barcelona, en un matí assolellat d'estiu, la història de Marta i Jordi comença.
En: On the stage of lively and bustling Barcelona, ​​on a sunny summer morning, the story of Marta and Jordi begins.

Ca: Són germans, però la seva inesgotable energia i curiositat semblen multiplicar la seva presència.
En: They are siblings, but their inexhaustible energy and curiosity seem to multiply their presence.

Ca: Van venir a Barcelona esperant viure una gran aventura, i no es podien imaginar com de gran arribaria a ser.
En: They came to Barcelona hoping to live a great adventure, and they couldn't imagine how big it would turn out to be.

Ca: Al principi es perdien tots dos en els carrerons estrets i fascinants del Gòtic, escoltant el ressò dels segles passats.
En: At first, both of them would get lost in the narrow and fascinating streets of the Gothic Quarter, listening to the echoes of past centuries.

Ca: Els colors contrastants dels edificis antics i la modernitat ressaltaven, cada mural i motius florals pintats d'un vibrant taronja i vermell, cobrint els carrers amb un aire bohemi.
En: The contrasting colors of the old buildings and modernity stood out, every mural and floral motifs painted in vibrant orange and red, covering the streets with a bohemian air.

Ca: Però aviat, l'excitació de la nova ciutat i la confusió dels nombrosos carrers els va poder.
En: But soon, the excitement of the new city and the confusion of the numerous streets overwhelmed them.

Ca: Es van perdre.
En: They got lost.

Ca: Desorientats, buscaven una sortida de l'embolic de carrers.
En: Disoriented, they searched for an exit from the tangle of streets.

Ca: I just quan totes les esperances semblaven esfumar-se, van veure al final d'un carreró una figura que semblava familiar.
En: And just when all hope seemed to vanish, they saw a familiar figure at the end of an alley.

Ca: Era la Núria, una amiga de la infància.
En: It was Núria, a childhood friend.

Ca: Amable, divertida i també un xic tossuda, la Núria era coneguda per les seves historietes absurdament divertides i el seu terrible sentit de la orientació, tot i que era la primera vegada que es veia atrapada en aquesta situació.
En: Kind, funny, and a bit stubborn, Núria was known for her ridiculously funny stories and her terrible sense of direction, although it was the first time she found herself in this situation.

Ca: Molt feliç de veure els seus vells amics, ofereix ajuda a la Marta i al Jordi.
En: Very happy to see her old friends, she offered help to Marta and Jordi.

Ca: Amb un mapa a la mà com qui sosté un tresor, la Núria ajuda als germans perduts.
En: With a map in her hand like someone holding a treasure, Núria assists the lost siblings.

Ca: Caminen pel laberint de carrers estrets, passant per botigues plenes de colors, mercats vibrants i l'olor de la paella flotant a l'aire.
En: They walk through the labyrinth of narrow streets, passing by colorful shops, vibrant markets, and the smell of paella floating in the air.

Ca: Però tot i els esforços de la Núria, abunden les voltes equivocades, els carrers sense sortida, i els germans es veuen arrossegats a una aventura encara més gran.
En: But despite Núria's efforts, wrong turns abound, dead-end streets, and the siblings find themselves dragged into an even bigger adventure.

Ca: Però no es perd la moral.
En: But they don't lose morale.

Ca: La risa les ressona pels carrerons, les reguitzellades interminables la Núria sobre els seus errors divertits, i l'espectacle de Barcelona sota l'estiu els captiva.
En: Laughter echoes through the alleyways, Núria's endless bursts of laughter about her funny mistakes, and the spectacle of Barcelona in the summer captivates them.

Ca: Finalment, arriben, esgotats però rient, a un lloc que no esperaven.
En: Finally, exhausted but laughing, they arrive at a place they didn't expect.

Ca: No és el lloc on volien anar, era el parc de la Ciutadella, ple de vida, música i jocs.
En: It's not the place they wanted to go, it was the Ciutadella Park, full of life, music, and games.

Ca: I en aquella errada, descobreixen un lloc nou, una experiencia diferent.
En: And in that mistake, they discover a new place, a different experience.

Ca: Barcelona, amb les seves sorpreses, encant i l'orientació terrible de la Núria, els proporcionen una aventura com mai haguessin somiat.
En: Barcelona, ​​with its surprises, charm, and Núria's terrible sense of direction, provides them with an adventure they had never dreamed of.

Ca: En aquesta història senzilla però plena de vitalitat, aprenem la lliçó de la vida que sovint, no és tant arribar a la destinació, sinó el viatge en si mateix, ple de rialles, sorpreses i històries per recordar.
En: In this simple but lively story, we learn the lesson of life that often, it is not so much about reaching the destination, but the journey itself, full of laughter, surprises, and stories to remember.

Ca: Així que, fins i tot quan et perdis, recorda sempre que podries trobar alguna cosa, o algú, que canviarà per complet la teva aventura.
En: So, even when you get lost, always remember that you might find something or someone who will completely change your adventure.
