The "Gaudier" side of Barcelona

POWS:

  • La Sagrada Familia wasn't finished in time for our visit (we'll just have to come back in 2026)

  • The origin of the word gaudy is not derived from Antoni Gaudí even though his architecture fits the definition

  • Small blister on the top of my foot (Instead of 60 miles in 3 days like Robin has done, we're going for 60 miles in 10 days)
WOWS:

  • Flamenco show (enough said)

  • Viewing the city from Montjuic as part of our bus tour

  • Virginia has more or less figured out her way around (we even rode a city bus seamlessly tonight!)
  • There is a sudoku puzzle on the facade of la Sagrada Familia (hint: each column and row adds up to Jesus' age when he died)

  1. LA SAGRADA FAMILIA. That's. Amazing. Cue my jealous face, right now. :)
