Gracias a dios que es viernes! (TGIF!) It's been a long and busy week and I'm so excited to kick back and enjoy my weekend! After spanish class and lunch, Sarah, Mimi and I set out to find Guell Park, which is a Barcelona park that Gaudi designed. In fact, the main picture at the top of my blog is taken from Guell Park. Mrs. Maker and I randomly selected that picture from google images before I came to Barcelona because it was pretty, so it was nice to connect a picture with a real place! All I can say is if you come to Barcelona, you MUST go to this park. It was so so beautiful and had great overlooks of the city. On one side you could see the ocean, and then you can turn around and see the mountains. It was also nice to see lots of greenery and get away from the busy city life for a little bit. The temperature was perfect, the skies were blue, music was being played... it was just another day in paradise!
We're hoping to meet up with some of our new friends tonight and some bars by the beach. Let's hope I have learned from my mistakes on the metro last week and can make it there at a decent hour. I hope you all have wonderful weekends!!
