Gaudi; what a guy.

Hi Em Isn't Barcelona great!! One of my favorite cities. Too bad you didn't get to see the fountain in action. It actually quite impressive. I didn't see any Sangria in your photos. I hope you sampled at least a glass. I recall it was very very good. It is still snowing in Calgary. Should be green by July :) Safe Journey Karl
