Luckily we found a really cool couple to Couchsurf with. She is from Barcelona and he is Italian and both nights he made us amazing pasta dishes from scratch, much better then we ever had in italy. Also one afternoon we found a really neat place close to the beach that had really cood hummus and Sangria which we had a whole pitcher and then took the beach for a nice siesta.
There was alot of modern architure by Gaudi a spanich architect from the 1900's who really like mosaics. He designed a church the Sacred family that the city of Barcelona has been building since 1882 and no one really knows when it will be finished they think 2020. Aaron and I just argued which spire was the tallest. He also designed this really cool park that reminded us of the city musuem (in st. louis). The whole park was filled with really neat stone, columns and paths some of buildings were dr. suess looking, it did have a really nice view of the city.
Barcelona was a very relaxing and cool city were we both felt real comfortable and relaxed just being there.

Hi there. I happened upon your blog and I enjoyed your Barcelona pics. I was there 10 years ago. It's funny, the Gaudi church doesn't look much different. It's still beautiful even though it's not finished. Enjoy your time there. I'm hoping you are going to other parts of Spain that I visited too! Safe journey.
i'm so stoked that you guys are having a blast! i can't wait to hear all the stories and see the rest of the photos!
