Spain Trip

Been meaning to go to visit Spain as I hear wonders and tales of how fantastic it is but at the same time it can also be quite an adventure as people tell us to be wary of the pickpockets from different corners....

In addition, My mum and my Uncle with his family went over that time and exclaim that the trip was really full of palpitation!

Duration of Trip:  31st of July 2017- Aug 3rd 2017

Day 1 of the Visit (1st August): 

Sagerada Familia , Barcelona Spain 

One of the most Fascinating Buildings Created by Gaudi, my Brother!.....
Just Kidding ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜ฌ, by Antonio Gaudi actually, and apparently the building is yet to be completed so it is still undergoing construction work until 2026 I heard? ๐Ÿ”ง๐Ÿ”จ๐Ÿ˜ฎ


 

Casa Batllo - 


Also designed by Antoni Gaudi



Then as you know it, we went around town exploring our way and also did a little bit of shopping here and there....


Do you Like Messi?
























  
















Market Place: Las Ramblas, Barcelona, Spain. 















1:30-2:30pm~ At the O'toxo 3 Hermanos, Barcelona for Lunch!








The First 4 photos shows having the 'Spicy' Snail as I'm slow as a snail...
However, The rest of the photos somewhat shows that although slow...it's the slow & steady that wins the race?! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜‚

Decided to try Spanish food for once! My mother can be quite picky when it comes to deciding what sort of food to eat (i.e. she prefers & like asian food instead of western food...)  

Then did abit of exploring nearby the place where we just ate our food... 

In the hearts of Barcelona- The street!
At Ciutat Vella Barcelona

Catedral de Barcelona

Posing in front of the Cathedral felt like I was doing a little bit of the Romeo and Juliet in a way lol. 
The way my hand clasp...(Check out the Caption in one of the photos below! ๐Ÿ˜€)



 

"If I profane with my unworthiest hand." LOL ๐Ÿ˜‚

Park Gรผell

Huzzah! My Mother wanted us to see Gaudi's Lizard  as my brother when he was young also drew a lizard like Him, Bizarre~ ๐Ÿ™€ Unfortunately the place turned into a fee paying district which left us no choice but to take a photo outside of the attraction....
was a shame really ๐Ÿ˜ญ as we were looking forward to see how fantastic this art of beast could be!










Around 8:40pm- Exploring how the supermarket runs in Spain.








Around 8:40pm- decided to walk around to see what it is like at evening-night around our hostel, checked out McDonalds lol

Mum to Brother: "Look there is a star!" Just kidding I made that caption up, don't know what was said that time ahaha


Day 2 of the visit (2nd August): 

9am: Good Morning! Having spanish breakfast hahaha  



The weather was very hot on that day. It was like around 28-30 degrees Celsius- Blooming hot I gotta say ๐Ÿ’ฆ

Barceloneta Beach 










Looks like I'm showing off this man lol ๐Ÿ˜‚













Wrap Up - It has finally been the end of the day and we were at the Barceloneta beach, enjoying the last summer breeze over there. Towards the last part of the photos, it may seem that we look a bit lost (hahaha but we're not, I can assure you...) Just that I can't help but to somewhat brood over the unattainable bike ride that we were supposed to do- Which now thinking back on it, I shouldn't have ๐Ÿ˜…- Nevertheless, it was a good trip! :) ๐Ÿ‘


Night view of Casa Batllo- Beautiful ๐Ÿ˜


Day 3 (3rd August):

12pm-4pm: Just did abit more shopping lol since time was fairly tight and we couldn't risk being lost at this stage.

Before Leaving to go back to home, we found out the place that my mum wanted to show us hahaha you can see it in the photo below with the caption. 


Centre of photo shows a building in the distance, the place my mum actually wanted us to see lol
