Barcelona, Day 2

What a day? Got off the ship and successfully to our hotel. Visited a market, ate tapas for lunch, bought Henry a new pair of sandals since the soles split on the ones he was using and then the highlight of the day: a: visit to the Sagrada Familia. What a strange and wonderful place! We had a guided tour, which really helped focus on particular aspects of it and not just be overwhelmed.
