The morning started with a cool ocean breeze and sand beneath our toes as we started our morning off right with dolce pan and cafe con leche off of the Mediteranian. It was picturesque as we watched the small waves come in off of the beach.
Next Kelsea and I walked up to Los Rambles, a world famous street with shops and human sculptures, to the world famous house designed by archetect Gaudi. Casa Batillo was a mix of vibrant colors and twisted shapes. We also walked up to Casa Milo another house designed by Gaudi. Kelsea and I made our final stop on our tour of Gaudi's famous work when we walked to the unfinished Sagrada de Familia. The Sagrada de Familia is a towering temple that looms over the town. The amazing thing is that the Sagrada de Familia is not completed. In fact it is only half as tall as it will be when completed(in like 2050). The remarkable project is already breathtakingly tall.
Our next stop was the gothic cathedral in the center of town. Barcelonians claim that their cathedrial is the most beautiful in Spain. It is magnificant. The high butrised ceilings have incredible detail and then shrines are not to scoffed at either.
Tomorrown Kelsea and I are headed to Roncesvilles. We will start our pilgrimage on friday. Because we are trying to catch the bus to Pamplona it is going to be an early morning. I will write more tomorrow. -Trey
