Barcelona- Gaudi
Parc Guell - Gaudi’s park. It was pretty amazing with colourful mosaics everywhere and amazing views of the city as well. The mosaic curved seating at the top of one section were stunning - colours, patterns and different curves everywhere. Underneath this area was a huge pillar supported space with arched ceilings and some colourful circular sections. There were also incredible archways and areas that looked like overhanging earth supported by angled pillars.
Sagrada Familia - this was Gaudi’s final legacy, and if there was one thing that is used to represent Barcelona that would be it, but still in a state of completion and LOTS more to fix. An impressive structure, but didn’t grab us as much as David thought it would. Fastest spend of euro dollars at an attraction so far - $44 consumed in less than 45 minutes, but all for a good cause. the photo of that is the one looking up at a ceiling - not that you mayrecognise it as such!
