Barcelona photographs

Barcelona, like Valencia, is huge. But Barcelona has Gaudi, an amazing and quirky architect, who has left his mark all over the city. Most of the pictures in this blog are from Katherine, so you will see the city from her view.

This is a water fountain on Las Ramblas-designed by Gaudi.

Isn't he cute?

This is an amazing market with everthing from pig head to exotic fruit.

Dragon fruit. We did not try any because the market was closed the 2nd day-darn!

CANDY!!!

MORE CANDY!!!

Our hostel was nice.

It was haloween. Our hostel had decorations!

Gradma and Grandad's hotel had lot's of computers for internet connections. The girls like to stay connected!

Einstein was on Las Ramblas. He gave the girls a math lesson in static electricity. Ouch!

Isabelle asked to borrow this lady's wings. The lady gave her a little dolphin, instead.

Grandma is quite the explorer. And she likes candy, too!

Grandad, also an avid explorer, had lots of smiles and hugs to share.

Parc Guell-way cool.

Hill climbing at Parc Guell.

More Parc Guell.

Bird taking off at Parc Guell.

Endangered lizard at Park Guell-never saw one like this before.

We went to the Cathedral-check out the Barcelona video blog. This is a fountain in the back.

Isabelle and Grandad in the back part of the Cathedral.

In the Barrio Gotico, Katherine rubbed this turtle for good luck.

So far so good.

The next day, she still looked good, wouldn't you say? That turtle works!

Grandad had a flashback when we went to the pharmacy and he saw the sign (look above his head) for the magnesia efervescent. He kept a stiff upper lip, nonetheless.

This clay figure has nothing to do with the Barcelona trip (it was part of a math project at home), but it insisted in going on the web....
