This is more of a beach if you are looking for a sun vacation. Above is a picture of Barcelona’s city beach.
Most of our holiday was spent in Spain this year. Steph and I both studied Spanish for a number of years, but hardly get to use it. We make a point of going to Spain from time to time, so we don’t lose it completely. We both like Barcelona, and there are frequently cheap airfares there. The official language in Barcelona is not Spanish, rather Catalan, but Spanish is widely spoken. Catalan is related to Spanish and often understandable if you speak Spanish.
If you go to Barcelona you can’t help but seeing some Gaudi. Here are two pictures from Park Güell, home to Gaudi for a while and where some of his art is featured.
Here’s Steph in front of the famous Gaudi Lizard:
Here’s one of the buildings in the park:
There was a neighborhood festival while we were there, and I’m going to put some pictures of that in a separate post.
