Adios!

First thing this morning, we rented bikes and went towards Montjuïc, which literally means Jewish Mountain in Catalan. We didn't make it very far though because the hills were not slight but straight up and vertical.


So we ditched that plan and rode along the beach instead. It was gorgeous :) (although riding continuously on cobblestones is not the most pleasant experience). The sun came out for a bit and we rode the length of the city along the water. 


We re-visited some of the sites that we saw on the Fat Tire tour a couple days ago then decided to tour Gaudi's Casa Mila. The architecture was spectacular but only one of the five floors was open to the public :/

The view from the terrace was spectacular.


The view of the city was even better.


Well, this might be the last post for this blog. Tomorrow, we fly from Barcelona to Paris Orly (assuming it's open in the weather) then take a bus and train from Orly to Charles De Gaulle, from where we will hopefully return to London!

This trip has truly been amazing and I have learned and seen so much but I have to admit I'm a little bit excited to be home with my family on Saturday :)
