Barcelona: Expectations Exceeded

The second largest city in Spain, beach town, historic, different.
Headed up north with Mama to Barcelona for a day and a half.
What once was a questionable destination for our trip has now become
a definite favorite.  Barcelona is extremely modern, lively, and fresh.
Basically, a day was not enough.

Boqueria Market off La Rambla.  Right in the heart of Barcelona.
We tried the coconut-mango smoothie.  Mmm.

Cathedral of Barcelona.  Incredible.

The Cloisters.  Geese, fountains, the works.

Visiting the Sagrada Familia Cathedral.
One of the most elaborate and interesting cathedrals I've seen.
Designed by Antonio Gaudy.  Construction staff busy at work
due to an expected visit from the Papel on the 7th of November.

Mother, after a happy visit to Guady's toilet.

We loved our hotel: Praktik Rambla.
Very clean, very modern, very up to Mother's standard.

Shout out to my peeps back in the U.S. of A.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN.


Peace, Love, Whatnots,
