BARCELONA, SPAIN
A fabulous RunnerBean Tour in the Barrio Gotic (Old City) |
Back on those historic narrow, winding streets we love |
|
The historic Jewish section |
Narrow streets... |
...suddenly a church |
Always a castle or another church springing up somewhere! |
|
Now that's a Museum to sink one's (sweet) tooth into... |
|
We become familiar with the works of Gaudi, whose structures are found throughout the City |
Gaudi was described by his professors as either "a madman or a genius." You decide... This photo shows a section of the roof top of the apartment building in the previous picture |
Also part of the roof top design ..except for the fellow in the white hat.... |
Photos of Gaudi's unfinished masterpiece: The Sagrada Familia. His goal was to represent the entire Bible. Others are completing it |
There is no way to adequately photograph it in or outside |
|
Gaudi's Park Guell |
|
Ahh, retired at last!
|
Imagine everyone in beatiful hats as we "promenade" on La Rambla, site of their annual Easter Parade |
We NEVER pass up an opportunity to ride a carousel |
Tibadabo Amusement Park high above the City |
Or pass up an opportunity to see a puppet show |
|
A Church next to Tibadabo |
A statue of Columbus...looking (out) for us... |
Joan Miro Museum overlooking the City |
National Art Museum, somewhat closer to street level |
Love those narrow streets |
You never know what you'll find to drink... |
Or who might need a hat |
|
One for the road... |
...before moving on |
