Sorry for the lag in updates, but I spent this past month doing A LOT of traveling! It has been so amazing to see southern europe! I went to visit Barcelona Spain, Monaco & Monte Carlo France, and ALL over Italy. I also made it to Amsterdam Neterlands (like actually visiting museums and etc ), Dusseldorf Germany, and Brussels Belgium.
I'll start with Spain- wow what a beautiful place! I was in Barcelona which is right by the Ocean and it was SOO sunny during the day! (Like 70 degrees F so people were in t-shirts and shorts). The city is FULLL of Gaudi architecture- almost every other building was designed by Gaudi. The Sagrada Familia is SO amazing- its crazy how he designed it ... so mathematical! :) Also visited the Poble Espanyol (its a "village" that is designed to mimic the various styles of architure throughout Spain), saw the Montjuic Fountain Light Show (SOO amazing..totally worth sitting in the cold for 1 hour to wait for it), visited Los Ramblos (the famous street in Barcelona for shopping), and of course visited the Barcelona Beach (even went to the aquarium)!!!
Here are some pictures from Barcelona:
The view from the Hostel: very unique office building...turns blue & red at night
First thing to do in Barcelona: find the shopping mall!
La Sagrada Familia- designed by gaudi...still being completed today
This is how gaudi designed it- with sandbags. wow...
