Catalonia Day 3
Not much for day 3 as it was a super relaxing day. We spent the morning and half the afternoon relaxing in Sitges by the beautiful beach, had a swim, had some lunch and just enjoyed some downtime. Mid afternoon we headed off to Tarragona which is a seaside city south of Barcelona where we explore more roman ruined. These ones were in really good condition in sections.

It just so happened that Barcelona and Arsenal were ...
I love Gaudi
... and as I sat on the bench seat the table tipped and a whole glass of icy cold beer landed in my lap!! What a cold shock and what an idiot I felt walking around for the next half hour with a big wet patch on my dress!
The Gaudi buildings are totally amazing and I am in awe of his capabalities and his forward thinking. The Sagrada Familia is obviously his most famous work and this is an ongoing work based on plans he drew up before his ...
