Barcelona, Spain

We recently spent 4 days in Barcelona down by the waterfront near the La Rumbla markets. The first day we wandered round the city - found a yum fresh food market - then checked out some of the famous Gaudi architecture including the apartment block he created..
 



We spent some time down at the waterfront, Brendon managed to get a surf in at the beach and we had a walk along the pier to the large Christopher Columbus monument


 
One of the days we hiked up to Park Guell which was amazing, it was styled by Gaudi and had a top view over the city. I have never seen so much mosaic in my life!!!






 
 
One of the nights we found a fun cocktail bar that was completely pirate themed...


 
We visited the Picasso museum as well as the huge Sagrada Familia, also styled by Gaudi. You can see just how big it is in the panoramic view from Park Guell compared to the rest of the city.
