We went up there, but I had difficulty getting any images I liked. I think we toured most of Gaudi's work while we were there.

I would like to return to Spain, settle in a single location, and spend a couple of weeks traveling on short trips out into the country.

master architect (Gaudi) who created the magnificent yet-unfinished cathedral La Sagrada Familia. Spectacular architecture!

Didn't see this building. Wouldn't mind going back. But not in the summer and not during a taxi strike!

Looks like one of these could be an entry for the red white and blue July contest!
