Heading Home


Barcelona is a beautiful city that is full of interesting architecture, great cafes and lots and lots of things to do and people to watch. 

The buildings Gaudi designed and built are of course very popular and unique, but there are lots of other unique places in addition.    We've enjoyed having a few days to explore.  Here's a few shots around town

Gaudi Apartment Building


The Music Consrvatory

Gaudi's Park Guell

Gaudi's architecture has had a huge effect on this city, as it brings in swarms of tourists to look at it.  And it is hard to capture the scale of La Sagrada Familia with photos.  Grandiose in scale and vision, it is getting more and more difficult to recognize Gaudi's hand as construction continues well past 100 years now.  Whether you consider it an architectural masterpiece of a work more fitted to an amusement park, you can't deny that it is unique!






Plan B

We pieced together two bike boxes that a guy at ProBike in town was nice enough to give us, and put the wheels in a separate wheel box, so Das Bike is packed and ready to go.  It isn't near so secure as the bag that we lost, but it will be fine.

I hope that you've enjoyed this blog.  It has been fun to share just a few of our experiences.

See you at home!
