Spain 2012 with Ma&Pa – Day 21 – Barcelona

Barcelona – Wed July 25th 2012

Just sitting waiting to head for dinner, so jotting down some stuff.

Got up early to head to Segrada Familia for our 9am tickets – had to pick them up first – directions were to get them at LaCaiza – however 1st try no luck with English and our attempts to self solve didn’t work.  We found another couple with an English speaking guy – but our card was still not being accepted by machine so went straight there (9:15 by now) – and got in not problem – paid extra E6 for both to go up the left also – was worth it as you could really see the work being done from above, (see photos).

The church basilica was yet again another incredible building – this time much more unique.  It was like being in a canopy – the columns branching out like tree limbs – resulting in none of the typical architectural domes as the weight became dispersed.  And the top layer mad to resemble palm fronds over everything.
