Hello!
At the beginning of March, Brenna's family and I went over to Barcelona for the weekend to explore the city. Barcelona is about two and a half hours away from Madrid by train, so the trip over was relatively easy! While in Barcelona we explored all the sights like Park Güell, La Sagrada Familia, Barceloneta, and La Rambla. The city itself is beautiful and we enjoyed walking around and exploring.

The next place we went to see was Park Güell. The park was my favorite thing I saw while in Barcelona. It was really beautiful and the weather the day we went was perfect.
Shortly after the Park we then walked over to Barceloneta, which is a small beach area just outside of the city center.
The next day we walked about the city more and visited La Rambla and El Mercado Boqueria. El Mercado was amazing to see, there was food, spices, sweets, and art filling the market.

Thank you for the photos of the Barcelona area and your comments. We are looking forward to learning even more about your adventure. Angela & John Mark; (John H Mark Jr, Facebook)
