Sorry for being absent and not posting for months. Life hit me hard this year. But I will be back soon with more travel videos.

Last post from our Spain trip. Our last major site was Gaudí's first major construction project. Was cool to see this after the Sagrada Familia to see his progress. Also on a different topic, when I got home I found my hard drive I lost months ago with all my videos and photos. So I should have some videos coming out withing the next couple weeks. 🇪🇸

One of our last sites we saw in Barcelona was the Erotic Museum. Also stopped at the H**p museum after this but my phone died pretty much immediately. 🇪🇸

Last day of wandering for more sites. My neck hurts from constantly looking up walking around this city. 🇪🇸

2nd and 3rd stops on our Pyranese tour. First at a small thermal spa town in France where we got an incredible lunch. Then onto Andorra to finish off the tour.

First stop on our 3 country Pyranese tour. Just a quick hr in Bagà, Spain. 🇪🇸

A wee little more Barcelona wandering in search for sites. I can understand how the entire city of Barcelona got a gold medal on Architecture. Everywhere you look is incredible. 🇪🇸

A couple more Gaudí buildings. He is now without a doubt my favorite architect. We didn't go into either of these but I'm sure they are worth it if you've got the time and money. 🇪🇸

More wandering the streets of Barcelona. We both loved this city. One of my favorites. 🇪🇸

While walking from site to site we stumbled upon a museum which definitely should be an Atlas Obscura site. The Museum of World Cultures was a pretty cool little museum in the heart of the old Gothic quarter. 🇪🇸

Ok so I have considered myself churched out for a long time. After a few European countries it takes a lot for a church to impress. But Spain does have a few with some incredible architecture. This one even snuck a futball logo into their stained glass. Decided to throw in a graffiti dog that was nearby into this post. 🇪🇸

After the Sagrada Familia we went to an old Hospital turned museum. It was cool though most of the buildings are closed off.

Last post from the Sagrada Familia. This is from the death side (exit). Though less impressive than the front or interior design by Gaudí. Still pretty cool looking. 🇪🇸

The interior of Sagrada Familia. Everywhere you look here is just absolutely incredible. 🇪🇸

24/09/2024

First day exploring Barcelona and trying to find some sites. This is definitely looking to be our favorite city in Spain. 🇪🇸

23/09/2024

Some pics from our one day we had exploring sites around Valencia. It was a nice city, but we really didn't have any time to really experience it. 🇪🇸

23/09/2024

Our last, unexpected stop in Seville. We went expecting a few ruined walls but we were shocked to see an entire Roman city. Itálica was apparently the first Roman city on the Iberian peninsula. Though only a small portion of the city is excavated at all, we still spent a few hours. Large swaths of the land are now roped off for future excavations. Though based on the picture at the museum of the old city. I do think the entire new city was built on top of the hippodrome. 🇪🇸

I decided to give the Seville cathedral its own post since I had enough pics. Outside of being big there wasn't anything else super special about this one to us. However it does have the resting place of the great invader Christopher Columbus. I guess it's worth a stop, though I truly hate giving money to the church. 🇪🇸
