Today was an amazing day! We went to see the Sagrada Familia, which is absolutely insane and huge! And it is still being worked on… after being under construction for the past two centuries! Crazy, I know! Then we headed to the beach in the Olympic Village in Barcelona. At first it was very cold and cloudy and we were all very disappointed but after sitting on the beach for a good 30 minutes and after about ten ladies came by and asked us if we wanted massages, it finally got sunny and hot! It was so beautiful! Some of the girls, Mrs. Bryan, and I found the perfect place for lunch. It was very expensive, being that my water was 5 euros where the coke was 3 euros (have you ever heard of such thing), but the food was amazing! After we had lunch we all really wanted gelato.
Since we only have two more days, now one more day :(, we are loading up on the gelato. Aubrey, Casey, Jen, Dana, and I decided to go on a hunt to find an incredible gelato place. We asked this nice frenchie and he told us there was a really good place about ten minutes away. So we went on a nice long walk and ended up getting to the cutest part of the village. We found the most amazing ice cream place ever. It had turning wheels of ice cream! It was so good and plus we got a picture with the Italian owner after. After we finished our ice cream we decided to continue walking all around the village, running into about three other amazing gelato places. We seriously had hit the jack pot in ice cream! Today was an awesome day! Sangrada Familia, beach, gelato and a not so bad practice was awesome! We only have one more day, but we are spending it in Barcelona and doing some shopping! We are all very excited about that!
See you guys soon!
