Barcelona is warm and friendly

Barcelona has been a blast over the last few days and I really look forward to coming back - a short trip just isn't long enough. Today we went to the truly remarkable La Sagrada Familia cathedral, designed by Antoni Gaudi. La Sagrada Familia is his masterpiece and has been under construction since 1882. They're half way through building it now but it could easily take another hundred years to complete. I've seen some remarkable architecture on this trip but nothing comes close to this one, Gaudi's an evil genius!

Yesterday we went to the beach (right in town like Sydney) and cruised around the main street of Las Ramblas. Siestas have also been on the menu with lots of snoozing mixed in with the great food and balmy weather.

I'm hoping we'll get a chance to head back to the beach but the siesta may win :)
