Barcelona, Spain Day 2

Day 2 we took a tour of La Sagrada Familia a large roman catholic church designed by a famous Catalan architect, Antoni Gaudi.  Construction was started in 1882 and it is set to be complete in 2026.  If you are like me you're probably thinking, that's a long time for construction.  After seeing it in person you can understand why.

This is standing inside looking up at the ceiling.  (Almost as though you are standing in a forest...)

The use of natural light in his architecture was fascinating.

The architecture here absolutely blew my mind away.  Pictures just don't do this place justice.  

Barcelona has a few different famous buildings that Gaudi designed and we were able to see and tour a few of them.

We had lunch at a place along the port and enjoyed some delicious fresh seafood!
Next we toured The History Museum, an underground ruin with the remains of Roman buildings.
