Barcelona is all about Gaudi, great food, cathedrals, warm beaches, cobblestone streets and a wonderful mixture of the old and the new. This was a city we fell in love with. Our apartment was tucked into an area of the city that was accessible to everything. The people are very engaging and there is always something to see and do. We had a food fair and wine tasting going on a block away. We had Barcelona's cathedral a block away, complete with Roman columns. We had lots of little shops (too many for Stan probably) all up and down our street. With the metro a block away, we had an easy run to the Sagrada Familia, Gaudi's massive work of art, still in progress. Having Tamar and Martyn there with us meant we always had someone to do things with, whatever the choice of the moment. Here is a look at our street and of one of Gaudi's buildings in Parc Guell.
