• Day 24

    Barcelona and Gaudi

    October 18, 2024 in Spain ⋅ 🌙 16 °C

    Well, the last two days have been filled with getting as much seen in Barcelona as we can. Yesterday, we walked about 10 miles total, and today was about 7 miles, all just sightseeing. This doesn't include subway travel to and from.

    We visited the Sagrada Familia cathedral designed by Gaudi yesterday, and the pictures don't do it justice, and words are hard to describe it. It was amazing. After seeing this, we walked to another Gaudi building, Casa Batllo. In fact, we walked there twice, so Teresa could see it at night.

    Todswe went to Park Guell, another thing designed by Gaudi. It was pretty cool as well. After the park, we rode the metro to the beach. We were able yo see a beach area of Barcelona and even saw two boats competing in the America's cup. Didn't understand what the heck was happening, but we saw it.

    The afternoon was spent doing laundry and packing for Paris tomorrow. Had our last meal in Spain at a place that made great pasta. Onto Paris tomorrow as we wind down our vacation. We're both looking forward to getting back home next week.
