Relaxing at La Rambla (the main tourist road of Barcelona) eating tapas and drinking Sangria. Bob, Barb, Kevin, Lorraine and Alyssa.

Checking out the competion in Barcelona, Lorraine, Bob and Barb looking at the florists on La Rambla

More flower markets, the roses are pretty impressive!

John Wayne, one of the "live statue" buskers on La Rambla

I am gunna get in so much trouble for putting this one up but it was so cute! lucky they don't know how to edit websites! mum and dad doing the touristy thing on one of the Barcelona bus tours :)

La Sagrada Familia, Gaudi's famous building that began to be built in 1882 and isn't finished yet, maybe in 25 years time!

One of the reasons it is taking so long, the intricate detail of the rear entrance of the cathedral, the picture doesn't do the detail nearly enough justice.

A view of the spires at the top covered in mosaics - we took the elevator up (what! we were tired!)

But proof that we all walked back down, at least half way anyway :)

Casa Batllo, another one of Gaudi's efforts, this use to be a family home and the features inside are amazing.

Some of the architecture inside, these courtyards run all the way through the building and provided natural light to all the rooms.

Kevin, Lorraine and Alyssa at the Parc Guell. Another one of Gaudi's creations, this time using landscapes.

It had to be done, we discovered Flamenco dancing. They are amazing and powerful dancers and the music was also great. Stay tuned for the videos :)

The last day in Barcelona. A great time was had by all and there are many more adventures to come!
