Barcelona

Thank you to my sweetie for the best present ever! ^_^

Munchen to Barcelona in 2 hours!







We were flying over italy when i spotted these amazing alps, super spectacular!

Side track, i was on Singapore airlines on my way to frankfurt (it was a night flight) when we were flying over middle east, i looked out of the window and for the first time i see thousands and millions.. goddamnit, bloody godzillion billions of starry stars in the sky. How come ah??

Have never saw it before when i was flying to any other destinations. Weird.

Ok, watevaaa!





Sagrada La Familia - One mega-massive structure of a roman catholic church, the master work of Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi. Of all the churches that ive seen in europe, this is by far one of the most breathtaking and incredible one. Unbelievably chio. The complexity of the place is mind-boggling. No wonder it has been under construction since 1882 and is not expected to be completed till 2026.

Cant understand why cousin thought nothing of it. I was blown away!

Here goes all the pictures dedicated to the genius of this place! =D













His style is primarily inspired by nature or so ive read.






Natural light blazing in from everywhere.



Regular ceiling upon entrance. Nature-inspired tree branch columns.






Apparently, everyone looks hard at work. I cant understand why it have to take another 16 years to complete this place.





Some details of the church capture and placed at the museum. Its amazing how this place is built with its intricate funky designs and especially COLOURS. Where in the world would they use mosiac-coloured tiles to built anything back in those days?!!?

GENIUS LAH!




My cutie with Gaudi.




Is this place kidding me or what? Can soooo intricate with the exterior one meh?













Seb said he will bring me back here again when its completed in 2026. Cant wait! =P

So, we trotted over to another Gaudi's work of art.

Parc Guell - under the UNESCO World Heritage Site. I saw it in movies and travel magazines all the time and i thought it was beautiful. In real, it was even better.
Musicians galore! Was surrounding the park playing beautiful tunes. Romaaaantic lah! It was "light-heartening" to be strolling around that place.









There. My priceless pic. With that mother-fucker in the way who just refused to walk away from the colonnaded celebrated pathway.



I waited and realised theres just no way i could wait for these dumb fucks to go off and leave me to take a empty, lonely but romantic pathway. So i huffed and puffed and join these dumbasses. Grrr.... >=(






Hola amigo, what are you writing? Love poems for me? =)





















Abit Alice in wonderland feel in this place.

Souvenirs shops selling all sorts of mosiac stuffs.
