We're Back!!!!!

Josh and I are back from our Mediterranean adventure and I must say that it was the most amazing vacation that I have ever been on. I feel so blessed to have been able to see the sights that I saw and experience the various cultures along the way. We began our get away in Barcelona, Spain and from there cruised to the island of Malta; Naples, Rome, and Florence, Italy; and ended in Nice, France. The best word to describe everything is simply WOW! It was just that, WOW!!!!!

Our journey began in Barcelona, Spain..... (Yes, I am the dork who forgot to rotate the pictures before uploading them. I'll make sure the rest are not like this.)

This was the hotel we stayed in, Hotel Adagio. It was right off Las Ramblas which made it ideal for us.
Las Ramblas. This is a famous street in Barcelona that is lined with shops, hotels, and restaurants. Literally at all hours of the day, this street is packed. Barcelona is a city that does not sleep.
Sagrada Familia. This is the famous cathedral designed by Antoni Gaudi. Here's a bit of trivia...The term goddy that we use to describe really ornate things, comes from this man. The structures he designed were just crazy. People claim that what he created looks like he was on drugs when he designed them. Construction on this cathedral began in 1883 and as you can see is still not complete and they say it may never be complete. It was the most amazing structure.

This is the entrance to Park Guell, also designed by Antoni Gaudi. What you see is comprised totally of mosaics.

Here we have Casa Baittlo, also designed by Antoni Gaudi. It is supposed to look like bones.
