Look where I got all of my expressions from!
Ready to go.
Leaving Kansas City- how dismal.
How do you get to Barcelona? A secret only planes know.
Last American meal- we decided to go all out with the Big Macs and Angus Beef burgers. (Got to my hotel and realized that there was a McDonald's down the street; you know, the one right across the street from the KFC. Oh God.)
The two-bed room I shared with Hannah M. Precious, yeah? Cozy.
Hotel Rialto, the birth place of Joan Miró, where we stayed. All of the architecture in the Barri Gótico, and most anywhere else, makes me so happy.
My first sea!
La Sagrada Familia. I literally dropped my jaw and gasped when we turned the corner to see this. It's literally the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in my entire life.
Maybe you can't tell, but it's MASSIVE. The set of towers they have planned to go behind these is twice as tall.
The sky's always so blue.
Park Güell. This guy's nuts.
My city. Not as impressive in tiny picture form, but notice the coast on the left, notice the cramped apartment buildings and the sunshine.
I'll figure out cutting posts later, so this doesn't take so long to load. The layout of these picture posts are kind of awkward; I don't like it much, but oh well, Blogspot. Settling into my new home, looking forward to a siesta and to life here in general.
Despite all the pictures of beautiful architecture, I'm most stuck on your angus burger and your toes in the sand.
ReplyDeleteAnd that is why I am painfully American.
It was LITERALLY the most ridiculous thing you've ever seen?
ReplyDeleteI'm excited that I found out this exists. I can now stalk you from a distance. Things are well in Galesburg. Krissy, Zach, and I are sitting in the exact same places in our French class.
Yes. It's literally the most ridiculous thing I remember seeing, at at any rate. Sixteen is not literally the same thing as eighteen, but La Sagrada Familia will literally blow your mind. Okay, not that either. But it's ridiculous enough.
ReplyDeleteGod, that makes me ache to say "Bruce Davis" in a ridiculous accent. I'm determined to visit on Flunk Day.
