| In Barcelona we stayed in a lovely sublet. |
| At the base of La Rambla. |
| Barcelona was full of art for art's sake. We liked these arches. |
| This was the veranda. Every morning and evening the lovely jasmine flowers were visited by a hummingbird hawkmoth. |
| What could be more wonderful than the view? That would be the spider in the cacti. |
| The spider. |
| One of the lovely view's of Gaudi's housing complex, turned monumental park. |
| My father holds up the carriageway. |
| a teeny, tiny view of the same. I'll be back to fix this. |
| My turn to hold up the column. |
| Up on top of the carriage way. |
| Gaudi is one of the coolest architects out there. Here you can see the palm trees he's made out of stone, behind the real ones. |
| My parents in front of the would-be market stall. |
| The swirls, and the angels and the colors...aren't they great? |
| I was so excited; I read about all of this, but this was my first time seeing it in person. |
| My dad took this shot, I think it's particularly neat. |
| These arches are not parabolic, like your classical roman ones. My dad tells me that these are built from a hyperbolic cosine arc. |
| My text book had this image in it. Now I'm in it too! :D |
| A neat fountain. |
| My folks, enjoying the shade. |
| The neat ceilings of the market. |
| I stole my mom's sandwich when she took this photo. |
| More fabulous stone sculpture. |
| I like the stone basket balconies. |
| Inside the Sagratta Familia. |
| This is the Sagratta Familia upside down, and a tad blurry. The strings have weights on them, to determine where the loadbearing supports need to go. |
| Who wouldn't love a temple complete with sea turtles? |
| One of the reasons I love Gaudi architecture is because it looks like it belongs underwater. |
| This is the house where we rented a room. |
| Mountains! |
| A nice family portraid. |
| Something funny just happened... |
| Someone was taking a picture of the clouds when the jet plane shot out, and made a lovely picture. |
| Down the mountain a bit, or up a ways, depending on your direction of travel, were some monks. |
| The gondola. |
| This shot was fun to take. |
| I love this picture of my parents. There were no seats left on the train, so we sat in a spot designated for luggage. I was across the aisle. Gosh darned American tourists. |
| There were leeches, mosquito larva, and mysterious patches of wiggle worms in there. |
| Ranger Reimer. |
| This is an underpass for a Roman aqueduct. |
| A frequent sight during travels with my parents. |
