Gaudi's wishes

After a needed sleep-in, I woke up and decided to go to the market again. I took the metro over to La Boqueria with Mike and Sami from my program, and got a strawberry banana fruit juice and a baguette sandwich.

After the market we decided to walk along Las Ramblas and let our food settle. We saw many tourist stands, street performers, and fruit carts. Overall it was a great time.

I saw the biggest McDonalds I've ever seen on Las Ramblas. It was 5 stories high!!!!

After Las Ramblas I headed back to the dorms, regrouped and walked to Parc Guell to see some Gaudi architecture. It was about a 20 minute walk from the dorms.

Parc Guell had an amazing view and was flooded with talented spanish guitarists. We walked around, but since it was Friday it was way too crowded.

After we walked around for a bit, we decided to hike to the top of Parc Guell for the spectacular view. Here it is:
