Barcelona, Day 4

Went to the Festa de Poblenou and got you see giants in the parade plus castellos (a Catalan tradition of building human towers). And music of course--gralla, a double reed instrument and timbal, a drum. So lucky to get to see this!

Plus a visit to Gaudí's Casa Milá. And tapas for dinner.

Photo shows part of the lobby (originally a courtyard of one of the houses). Delicious dinner of salmon in some kind of orange sauce.
