4/3/14 – 4/4/14
The weather was warm, the sun was shining, and the men were being gentleman! It was a nice two days in Barcelona except when we lost Alyssa and Bree. Bree is from Wisconsin and Alyssa is from Colorado. They got lost when we were walking down winding streets between tall buildings. We eventually found them in a McDonald’s about 4 hours later. They went to McDonald’s to use the WiFi and contact our group on Facebook. While they were at McDonald’s we went to the beach. The water was cold but the sun felt nice. We also visited the Park Guell. It was designed as a stylish park for the aristocrats of Barcelona. All the benches are tiled with colors and look out over the city. The Sagrada Familia was a tall church that is being constructed until 2016. It is detailed with many symbols for Jesus and life. I can’t believe there were so many details. Inside the church it is decorated to be like a forest. The stained glass windows were my favorite part of the church. We visited the Futbol Stadium of the national Barcelona team. The boys went crazy in our group taking a million pictures. The girls just sat in the stadium seats. At night we watched a Flamenco Dancing Show to end our Barcelona experience.
