Barcelona, Spain - Part 2

Sunday April 17

Today we enjoyed Barcelona entirely on our own.  We hopped on the City Tour Bus which consists of a green line and an orange line.  We hopped off whenever we wanted and hopped back on when we were done seeing the sights.  We saw many of Barcelona's sights, none as famous as La Sagrada Familia.  This basilica is beyond description.  It has been under construction since 1882.  It is hoped it will be finished by the 100th anniversary of Gaudi's death in 2026.  We will be returning tomorrow to view the interior during our Gaudi Architectural tour.

This is where Bob helped a French family find a geocache.  

We walked along the main promenade again and along the beautiful beaches.  There are several cruise ships in the harbour, making the area very busy.

Dinner tonight:  jumbo tiger prawns, beef tenderloin, pasta and mussels, and a light dessert.
