Hello from Barcelona!

Barcelona is a lot different from the little sea-town of Valencia. It resembles New York City in a way-lots of hustle and bustle! Today we visited two projects of the great arquitect of Gaudi. His work is amazing! One being La Pedrera, a very intense looking apartment house looking thing! haha! It was amazing to look at! The other piece of arquitecture we visited today was La Segrada Familia, which was even more astounding! It was so beautiful! Although we didn´t get to ride the elevator up to the top to see a great view of the city of Barcelona the building itself was still amazing! Not only is the city of Barcelona fun, but also the awesome hotel we are staying in! This is my first European Hotel and it is really nice (definitly alot bigger than my closet of a bedroom at my house in Valencia, which I have grown to love). We also ate in a buffet-style restaurant tonight! It had food I actually liked-bread and pizza! haha! Just kidding, the food of Spain is growing on me alittle...meaning the cookies and the sweets not the seafood! Anyways it is getting late and I should probably let someone else have a chance at the computer! I hope everything is going well in Chattanooga!
Love,
Anne
