El hombre from Atlantis

Today we went to Casa Mila "La Pedrera", which is this amzing building designed by a guy by the name of Antoni Gaudi between 1906 and 1912. This was the most fantastic place I´ve ever seen. It looked like some insane child´s sandcastle come to life, like somewhere Aquaman would live. Words simply cannot do it justice so keep an eye out for when the pics are posted. The building´s design is based on things like conch shells, palm trunks, a cobra´s spine and ribcage... Absolutely, utterly amazing.

We then went and had lunch down by the beach and the Olympic village. Madre dios, I´m loving the Spanish food!

My opinion, if you go to Europe or the UK, make sure you come to Barcelona. It´s fantastic.
