June 18 in Spain

I woke up to an alarm at 7:00 yesterday. Grumbling, I got out of bed and got dressed so Baba and I could make our bus. Still tired, we went to look for a place to get breakfast. Although it was past 8:00, the majority of the shops are closed. When we found a cafe, I ordered a chocolate croissant and a hot chocolate. Instead I got two chocolates, and drank them both. Baba and I greatly enjoyed our breakfast, then walked to where our tour bus would be picking us up. The bus took us on a Gaudi tour, stopping twice, at the places displayed in the pictures below. 

This was the first building we stopped at. Unfortunately, I managed to not get an pictures of the exterior o the house, and this shot of a window is the best I have. Anyway, the exterior and interior of this building was entirely made out if curves, making it feel a hobbit hole.

This is the front of the Sagrada Familia, the giant church that Gaudi spent his entire life working on and is still under construction. This side represents the nativity scene from the bible. Below you can see baby Jesus on the central pillar. 

Above is the interior of the cathedral. The columns represent trees. One interesting fact I learned is that Gaudi kept most of the religious sculptures and whatnot on the outside of the Sagrada Familia in order to make everyone comfortable inside.

And finally, the back. This side repersent Jesus's death. It's still under construction, but you can see Jesus crusified and various other people mourning.

After the tour, I relaxed at the hotel until dinner. At dinner I ordered a delectable octopus dish, and for dessert we had flan again. This flan was also minuscule. Maybe my flan size expectations are inflated...
