Gracia neighborhood, Barcelona - where to stroll?

We plan to stop by Gracia area just for few hours, on the way from Sant Pau hospital. After that, onward to the las ramblas.

Where should we walk around, any routes, just to get the feeling and soul of Gracia? We will be there around 11-1pm in mid November.

Plaça de la Vila de Gràcia - start here and then?
Thanks!

.... anyhow, to me, the best time to visit Gràcia is from 5 to 7pm because it's when it's more lively -lots of grandmas picking up the kids from school, people walking their dogs, shopping... Not that I wouldn't visit at 11-1pm -if that's your window of availability- but just saying you'll see more of the neighbourhood true colours in the afternoon*

(*) yes, that time-band is still afternoon for us... :)) One of these days I will open a thread explaining how we measure time in these shores so you all get it once and for all, LOL!
