The Last Day in Barca

Our last day in Barcelona we went to La Segrada Familia or “the sacred family” church. It is made to look like it is made out of sand/clay. La Segrada Familia is gigantic! Tourists are able to go inside but we weren’t able to because the line was too long. In order to get in you need to be there at the crack of dawn. If I am ever in Barcelona again, which I will be, I definitely want to go inside.


After taking pictures in front of the church we headed over to Montjuic Park. It is a park the covers the majority of a hill to the side of the city. Atop the hill the views of the city and the water are gorgeous. We took a cable car ride to the top of the hill where there’s a castle. The castle of Montjuic is its name. We wandered around the castle for a while and then ate lunch on top of the castle with the views all around.




After lunch we walked down the hill to see the Olympic stadium from the 1992 Olympic Games. After seeing the stadium we walked to the metro which was really far away and made our way back to the hostel. Dylan and I gathered our bags, sent our post cards, and took the bus to the airport. I was sad to leave such a great city but I will hopefully return in the future. Off to Rome we went!
