We arrived in Lisboa (NOT Lisbon, honestly if we can learn to pronounce Mozart why can’t we learn the proper titles of cities?? C’mon people) and spent a few hours wandering around before our flight to Barcelona. This is where Anna, our resident adult, left us to join her friends in Copenhagen. It was very odd to be one member short.
Then, Barcelona…
We spent the first day kind of wandering about, seeing some of Gaudí’s buildings, going to a local brewery…
There are so may churches in Barcelona, it’s nuts.
The boys decided to goof around in a playground.
We got our first glimpse of the Arc de Triomf
Later by this church on our last night I could hear the soft sound of classical guitar in the distance. It was an amazing street performer that wrapped up our trip to Spain perfectly.
We went to the Park Güell…
The Park is an excellent example of Gaudí in his naturalist phase.
I went to La Sagrada Familia (by myself!)
This cathedral is by far the most beautiful building I have been in while in Europe…
On our last day we took a trip to the “Bunkers”
Which had some AMAZING views of the city.
It was the perfect end to an amazing Easter Break.
All Abroad!
