Our second day in Barcelona, we went to La Sagrada Familia. It's a hug Catholic church that they're building there. In fact, they call it a temple. They started building it in 1882 and they expect to finish it in 2026. It's a pretty great and spacious building. The architecture is by Gaudí, a famous Spanish architect whose name is rather appropriate: his stuff is pretty gaudy.
Anyway, the building is actually really cool. It's hard to describe so I just posted a lot of pictures Daddy took.
The coolest thing there was that we got to take an elevator up one of the spires. The elevator takes you up and then you walk all the way down the narrow, spiral staircase. While we were walking down the clock struck 2 o'clock. Since we were right in the tower, it was really loud. It spooked me a bit, but I didn't cry... Okay, I cried for a second... Okay, it was more like 5 minutes.
