Today was a Gaudi day.
Our walking tour guide advised us to visit Sagrada Família in the morning to see the best light coming through the stained glass windows. The church on the outside was incredibly detailed and the towers stretched high into the sky. Unfortunately we also had to look at the cranes as the Church won’t be finished until 2026. “There is no reason to regret that I cannot finish the church. I will grow old but others will come after me”-Gaudi.
Entering the church was startling, the sheer height of the roof, spiral staircases and above all the beautiful stained glass windows and skylights.
We then caught the metro to Park Güell, a public park system made up of gardens and structures designed by Gaudi. We saw a mosaic lizard, the snaking serpent bench and quirky buildings.
Dinner was tapas followed by Creme brûlée Catalonian style.

A very interesting day – the architecture is certainly unique. The way Felicity is dressed suggests the weather is quite mild? Glad you’re both enjoying your time in Barcelona.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Art is all a matter of perception. Gaudi a man before his time.
