    Here is the link to my Travel -Europe folder

    I will need to clean up the multiples and lower quality photos later.

    Today we woke up at a decent hour, got dressed and went down to breakfast. After, we headed over to the main stop for the hop-on-hop-off busses and rode to La Sagrada Familia, a cathedral. Beautiful place! Then we got back on the bus and rode it a few more stops, then got off to check out Park Guell. We walked maybe 4 miles up and downs ramps. Lovely park, with nice plants, and pigeons and quaker parrots flying around. Then we had an unhealthy lunch of chips and soda. Then back on the bus to our last stop, which was at a statue of Christopher Columbus by the port, where we'll be going tomorrow to get on the ship. It was also just a few blocks from the hotel, so we went back for a short break. Then back out to a few souvenir shops, then a buffet dinner and a Flamenco show! That was interesting. Would have been more enjoyable if my bladder hadnt started to burst at the seams halfway through :)) Then, once again, back to the hotel and to bed :)

    Fantastic architecture and I loved the stained glass windows. The weather appears to have been good for you on your trip which is always a bonus. What was the building with the giant ball teetering on the edge of it? I have lots more of questions
    but I'll wait until your settled back home again before asking any more. Thanks for sharing your holiday with us Jen.
