Montserrat




This is by far the most amazing place I have been to yet on this trip... This is a monastery and basilica built on this huge mountain. It is called Montserrat ad it was the site where in about 880 A.D. there was a "sighting" of a virgin and so this place was built, but the view from there is just spectacular.

El Malecon de Barcelona




So this is the "malecon" of Barcelona. It´s where the beaches and the marina are. It´s called Barceloneta and it´s really nice, or at least I liked it... :)

Sagrada Familia - A church in progress



So, this is the Famous Sagrada Familia Church in Barcelona... I think the only reason why it´s famous it´s because those bastards charge €8 or about $10 to get in... can you believe it?? To get into a church? that´s ok, I´d rather be eterally damned...

As you might have guessed from the picture, I didn´t pay...

I Promised Pictures

So here are some pictures of Barcelona that I just took.


This first one is the famous La Rambla Street (I think it´s famous).



The second picture is of Starbucks... I think they are following me.



The one with the wall is of an old roman aqueduct that was turned into the wall of a building. Apparently it was from the 1st centure BC.


This last one is just proof that I was there... :p
