Barcelona, Spain



Barcelona is on the coastal and we have enjoyed exploring this incredible city. The most famous landmarks in this city were designed by the architect Gaudi. We first visited Park Guell. At a first a planned community, now a city park. Gaudi's style was modernist and there is much tile-work and odd angles. We also visited La Sagrada Familia Cathedral under construction since 1882. Many of us were overwhelmed by the genius and religious significance.

Along with Gaudi's works, we also visited sites from the 1992 Barcelona Summer Olympics. Again we had the opportunity to have paella and we shopped and experienced the main road... "The Rambla"... markets, shops, and street performers.

Tomorrow, off to France.
