Gaudi Gaudi Gaudi

Today is our last full day in Barcelona. I know that everyone is really enjoying their time here, but the time has come to move on. They are installing an air conditioner in our room tomorrow, so it makes sense that we are leaving for Madrid and 100 degree heat.

We finished our sight seeing this morning and afternoon by visiting the other famous Gaudi buildings. We went inside the museum at the apartment building he designed and built, and it was well worth the 10€ we had to spend. The coolest part was walking around on the rooftop terrace. The Gaudi buildings cannot really be described fully without visiting in person. In the museum they show how Gaudi was inspired by nature and used structures from nature in his designs.

After checking out the couple Gaudi buildings we hadn't seen we took the metro the the Catherdral in Barcelona, another impressive European church. The whole gothic section of Barcelona is impressive. Including the Roman fortress walls right smack in the middle of town.

The lion sleeping below me was active again last night, but we think he has checked out which will hopefully result in us getting some more sleep tonight. He talked to us last night because someone had put stuff into the wrong locker in our room. We informed him that this was not us. He then showed us the fan he uses at night and made sure we knew that we cannot use it, it's his fan.

We are planning on going out for tapas one more time on Barcelona tonight, and our train leaves for Madrid at 10 am.
