Our trip to Barcelona | Summer Holiday |

Scott and I went to Barcelona at the end of August.  We have both always wanted to see Gaudi's architecture and of course try some authentic Tapas. It was good to have a break after the peak wedding season (we still have a couple of weddings left this year) and soak up the sun! I have only just got round to editing some of our snaps, which were shot on our Lumix GF1.

It was our first time visiting the City and it seems like a city that never sleeps; it is buzzing and colourful!  We packed a lot into our short stay and only stopped to soak up the sun on the sands of Barcelona beach.

Places we visited include:

Las Ramblas

Gaudi Parc Guell

Casa Batllo

Gaudi Cathedral- La Sagrada Familia

Picasso Museum

Barcelona Beach

Maremagnum Shopping Centre

Gothic Quarter-Barri Gotic

Our highlights were Gaudi Parc Guell, going inside one of Gaudi's buildings, Casa Batllo up to the rooftop and swimming in the sea on Barcelona Beach-the waves were huge! We also found a Cafe just down the road from our hotel were we went every morning for a breakfast of focaccia and espresso!
