sagrada familia
my favorite cathedral
Barecelona has some great stuff to do. I saw the sagrada familia, this cathedral although unfinished may be my favorite in Europe. I definately have noticed alot more is done since i was here 3 years ago. Hopefully they´ll finish it on time (50 years) so i can visit it when i´m 74. There´s always something going in the streets at any hour. i´ve seen people playing piano on the streets, flamanco dancers, rock bands, people in costumes..you name it. it´s a good way to see stuff. my hostel is on a really great square with wild stuff going on like people in foutains.The picassco muesum was inspiring to me as an artist..it made me really want to start working on music again, but i´m sure this trip will have lots of inspiration. Let´s see yesterday i chilled on the beach, buying beer from people selling it on the beach. i haven´t gone out at nite much cuz the hostel has a full bar and it´s always packed..so i end up never leaving...but ya it´s been fun.
but wait theres more
The Park Guell was designed by Guadi like the Sagrada familia. I had a fun day hanging out there with my friend Pedro from Brazil. The buildings there are one of a kind. I spent to last nite in Barcelona playing a game of midnight soccer. I'll sure miss Spain but i'm excited to see some other countries.

I loved Barcelona, one of my favorite cities. I definitly suggest getting out and enjoying the city at night, there is so much to enjoy beyond the bar at the hostel (although convenient) Go to the mall at the end of Las Ramblas, there are actually clubs inside. The random allyways also have cool hidden bars.
