The Beauty of Barcelona and the gorgeousness of Gaudi!


I haven't blogged for over a month, how very remiss of me! It has been fun with my girls being on school holidays but better still I've been away for a few days to Barcelona- it was definitely a work trip, research and inspiration all in one! I spent lots of time just taking photo's of all the amazing buildings and sculptures. 




















The area leading up to the National Museum of art was particularly beautiful and impressive. The area pictured below is actually flowerbeds and fountains.
However, the Gaudi architecture was my absolute favourite- there are hundreds of photo's I could show you but here is a taster....
Sagrada Familia outside and inside (above)

Casa Batllo (above) and Parc Guell (below)
My youngest daughter thinks this building looks like the perfect gingerbread house.
We had a wonderful time at the Joan Miro foundation too. Although I was unable to get a photo of it, his large wall hanging/weaving was incredible. Barcelona rocks! I hope you all had a good summer too.
