Our cruise began and ended in Barcelona, so we got to see the sights of the city over a couple of days. It was a unique place and one definitely worth seeing!
The Christopher Columbus monument at the heart of the city. He's supposed to be pointing to America, but our taxi driver pointed out that he is actually pointing the wrong direction! ;)
Corner market
More beautiful streets!
Our first night in Barcelona, we had a 2 hour, 5 course tapa meal at this little place! It was great!
Walking the streets at night
Our first hotel - the view from our balcony!
This was our first hotel, in the middle of the city!
Another view of the Christopher Columbus monument
Our last hotel had a rooftop bar with a 360 degree view of the city, so we watched the sunset from up there on our last night! Blu found a friend...
Such a great end to our trip!
That hotel, Barcelo Raval, was fancy!!
There really aren't enough words to describe La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. It is still under construction (almost 150 years!) and is beyond breathtaking. One side of the cathedral has stained glass in warm colors like reds and oranges since the sun sets on that side.
A door with carvings on it
The sunset side of the cathedral
The other side, where the sun rises, is more cool tones like blues and greens.
A FC Barcelona store!
A lunch stop for pizza and cappuccinos!
Parc Guell is hard to describe, but it's a place in Barcelona with parks and gardens, designed by Gaudi.
View from Parc Guell
The Gaudi House, where he lived
La Sagrada Familia - more massive than I could even describe!
Barcelona from our cruise ship
Good morning Barcelona!
La Sagrada Familia through the telescope
We found a shawarma place for our last supper there!
Cold, but a beautiful day!
A magic square on the outside of La Sagrada Familia that adds up to 33 on all sides, standing for Jesus' age when he was crucified
Ending our night with a Coconut Mojito Zero and a gorgeous view!
