The adventure continues ….. Barcelona
We started our day marveling at Antoni Gaudí’s masterpieces. The Sagrada Família, his awe-inspiring basilica still under construction after over a century, dominates the skyline with its intricate facades and soaring towers.



Note the detail
We visited Barcelona’s Basilica. Another Ash Wednesday service for the faithful.


The church offers access to the roof for scenic views



In the evening we joined a group and toured the Gothic Quarter. We finished with wine and tapas.





Visiting Barcelona is in striking contrast to our experience in Istanbul. The streets are wide and traffic orderly. Boulevards include dedicated bike lanes. Note the road barriers.

We visited the 1992 Olympics facilities that helped put Barcelona on the world map.
