DAY7: BARCELONA!



In Barcelona, our hotel was right on the Plaza de Espania, almost in the middle of town. Just up from the hotel was an area that was built for a world's fair, perhaps 1929. Every nite they have several light & water shows in the fountain in front of the largest pavilian, with is now the national Museum of Catalan art. We were there before dark, so we just had music & water, but it was spectacular!



The grand pavilian, shown here, is an art museum, with a great over view of central Barcelona, including our hotel (seen in a later shot), and the mountains surrounding Barcelona. It has a very nice collection of Catalan Impressionist painters.
