Spain Journal- March 1st (Part 2)- Barcelona

Part 2 of March 1st

We did a lot on March 1st and I didn't want to overwhelm you with it all on one entry so I am breaking it up into two.  In the last entry,  I told you about the Hospital Santa Creu i Sant Pau, Gaudi's Sagrada Familia and the Neighborhood of Discord. After we walked passed the Neighborhood, we walked up this huge, I mean crazy insane incline slope. The only highlight of that experience was there was escalators in between some of the streets to help you get up the hill.

That was one hell of a climb, even with help.
I will say that climb was alot of work, I noticed that there were numberous people making that climb besides our group. We where all heading up to the top of Parc Guell. At the top of this hill was a beautiful view of Barcelona.

When we go to Parc Guell we sit down on the mosaic tile that Guadi had made. The sitting area was massive, there had to be over a hundred people there, however you couldn't tell because it was so large. There are 14 people in our group and we took a group picture of us doing the Art History Dance in the middle of the sitting area( minus Charlie, who took the picture). From the picture you can tell just how large it is.

After all our walking, we had a wonderful dinner that was made by the hands of our fellow classmates. It was a very good dinner, they did a wonderful job!
