Barcelona

Barcelona was beyond beautiful! I had a wonderful time and couldn´t believe I was there; it felt like I was dreaming. On the first day we took a double decker tour bus around the city which was fun (but it was a little chilly). That night was saw the fountain at Montjuic which was AWESOME! The next day we went to the labrynth and gardens which was cool. Following that we toured the amazing Sagrada Familia. It was absolutely breathtaking and they aren´t even finished. After that we went to the Catedral and the Picasso Museo. As we left the Picasso Museum a parade of over 100,000 people walked through the streets in protest against the Spanish government. It was pretty cool and they were very peaceful which I admired. It gave me the chills to be there. After that we walked around Barcelona eventually making it back to our hotel. The day after that we toured the Olympic Stadium and headed back to Alicante! I took a bunch of pictures so I hope everyone is ready!
