It seems blogger is having some trouble with their servers and there’s some difficulty with posting/saving blogs. They’re still working on the issue(s) so hopefully it should be resolved soon. Regardless, I’ll do my best to update and hope it works out! Sorry to anyone who came to the site and saw an [...] Earlier today I finally finished uploading the pictures from my trip to Barcelona (97 of them!!). Have a look at the “3 Days in Spain” section of the Picture Gallery. I’m hoping to go to Helsinki in the middle of April, so I should get to see one more city before I go back home. [...] *Transcribed* Well, that concludes my trip to Spain. V wasn’t kidding when she said I wouldn’t want to leave! I really don’t want to! Anyhow, since I had to catch the bus at 07:00 to the airport I figured maybe I just wouldn’t sleep. I had also forgotten my cell phone (alarm clock). No one was [...] *Transcribed* While in Barcelona, I stayed at the Kabul hostel which I highly recommend to anyone visiting the city! The website says: “If you only want to sleep, go somewhere else!” There was always something going on… When I got back in the evening there was a soccer game going on in the square. Also, [...] *Transcribed* The last stop on my last day in Barcelona was the Gothic quarter located in the old city. Many of the buildings date back to Medieval times… This is the big Cathedral in the Gothic quarter. When I got in I wasn’t sure if it would be rude to take pictures, but it seemed everyone was [...] *Transcribed* After La Pedrera, I went around the city some more and took random pictures… Down at the end of Las Ramblas you have the Christopher Columbus column which is close to Port Vell. A little further down you have the world trade center which has been designed to look like a ship especially given that it [...] *Transcribed* On the morning of my last day in Barcelona I walked from my hostel to La Pedrera. Enjoy! Las Ramblas is a really lively place so I took another picture! The building on the right in the second picture looks like a dragon’s back and is supposed to be another famous building. The last [...] *Transcribed* After I was done at La Sagrada Familia I headed over to Park Guell. Maybe this wasn’t the smartest idea because I was already tired from all the walking around!! I only had 3 days, so I figured I’d go check the park out… This is the entrance to the park, followed by a distant view [...] *Transcribed* The architecture of this building is absolutely mind blowing. Gaudi was clearly a genius. La Sagrada Familia has been under construction for over 100 years and they’re hoping to complete it in the next 20 years depending on available funding and technology. Even if this was the only thing I saw in Barcelona it would [...] *Transcribed* After I put my things away in the hostel I walked around some more… I heard a lot of loud cheering (it almost sounded like Commerce Games all over again!!) and went to see what was up. There was a big game between Barcelona and Chelsea that night so there were a bunch of Chelsea fans [...] |
