A Walk Through La Pedrera - Casa Mila - Barcelona
While visiting Barcelona we went to La Pedrera - Casa Mila. I bought tickets in advance for this building. It was very busy and you basically follow along with the crowd.
Side Note - we also visited Casa Batllo on the same day. Casa Batllo is the busiest of all the buildings. I bought the top tier ticket which allowed us to see the apartment, but also allowed us priority access over the other lines. I didn't make a video there since there were too many people - but it was our favourite building out of the 5 plus Park Guell, that we visited.

Casa Vicens was Gaudi's First Commission and was built from 1883-1885. The visited Casa Vicens on our way to Park Guell. This is another building not visited by many people, so we were able to enjoy walking through at our own pace. We bought tickets once we arrived. For more information visit their site: casavicens.org
A Walk Through Sant Pau - Barcelona
Переглядів 2414 днів тому
Barcelona has so many amazing buildings to visit - most designed by Gaudi. Therefore many other buildings get over looked, such as Sant Pau. This was originally a hospital, but it is now open to the public. It is located directly down the road from the Sagrada. We visited Sant Pau in the early afternoon and the Sagrada later in the day.

A Walk Through Park Guell - Barcelona

In May I visited Park Guell. Yes - it is a trek to get there. We took the path with the escalators - which were all broken. Originally I was going to take a taxi, which I instantly regretted. But we made it up to the park and enjoyed ourselves there. The bench area and front area are extremely busy. So enjoy yourself walking through the park away from many of the people. Be sure to buy your tic...
A Visit to the La Sagrada Familia - Barcelona

No photos or videos can capture the feeling as you walk into La Sagrada Familia. It is so vast and with all of the light shining through the stained glass windows it is breath taking inside. If you are in Barcelona you must visit! This building is so unique, there is nothing else like it. We visited around 4:15pm. We had a timed ticket. There was next to no wait to get in. Once inside it is so ...
A Walk Through Palau Guell - Barcelona

In May I visited Barcelona and visited Palau Guell. This was the first Gaudi building we visited and it didn't disappoint. This was once a personal residence. It was built between 1886-1888. If you are a fan or architecture and design, I highly recommend going inside Palau Guell. It wasn't very busy when we visited, giving us lots of time to wander without feeling like we were moving with the c...
Novotel Barcelona City - May 2024

In May we stayed at the Novotel Barcelona City hotel for 8 nights. This hotel is located a bit on the edge of the city centre. However, the Glories Metro stop is a 5 minute walk away, and we could get almost everywhere with a short metro ride or bus ride. We had a room on the 18th floor and had an amazing view, even of the Sagrada. However, the hotel bar was basically above our room and we coul...
A Week In Madrid - May 2024

In May we spent a week in Madrid which is 4 days too long. Madrid is fairly small, extremely hilly without a lot to do. We stayed near the Prado at the Mercure. We watched a Flamenco Show; ate at Mercado de San Miguel; visited the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum; took a day trip to Segovia; rode the Big Bus Tour 2 1/2 times; visited the Temple of Debod; visited the Royal Palace; and the Prad...

In May, Gemma and I took a day trip from Madrid to Segovia. The train leaves from the North Station. Once in Segovia you take a bus to get to the Old Town.

We made our way up to the Segovia Castle and wand...
Take a Drive Around Madrid on the Big Bus Tour

We stayed in Madrid for a week, which ends up being too long to stay in Madrid. So, looking for something to do we decided to take the Big Bus Tour.

We visited the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum on a Sunday when we were in Madrid. Although there were many people, the Museum is large enough that we didn't feel crowded. We loved the assortment of paintings in this Museum and enjoyed it way more than the Prado - where there is no video because photos are not allowed at the Prado. If you are low on time and can only go to one museum, I high...
Mercure Madrid Centro - Madrid, Spain

In May 2024 I spent a week in Madrid and stayed at the Mercure Madrid Centro. This hotel is located basically across the street from the Prado Museum. So, it is on the one end of the main city centre. However, Madrid is a small city and everything seems to be a short walk. However, that walk is all uphill, in every direction. Even when I looked up transit, it told me to walk. The hotel is also ...

At the end of May 2023 we spent 2 1/2 days in Lofoton. We stayed in Svolvaer. This town is small. Everything is about a 4 minute walk away. We stayed at the Thon Hotel Svolvaer, which is right beside the Thon Hotel Lofoton. The Lofoton Hotel is right on the main square. It also happened to be a holiday weekend while we were there. We flew from Tromso to Bodo to Svolvaer. What we didn't know was...

At the end of May 2023, I took a trip through Norway, including a tour through the Lofoten Islands. It was a beautiful day with a mix of sun, clouds and a bit of rain. It was absolutely stunning!

      We were there from May 25-27th. Our Midnight Sun cruise got cancelled. Although it didn’t get dark we definitely didn’t see the sun. We had this 1 nice sunny day and the other days it rained, snowed and ice rained. Usually around 5C. But we were in the Arctic! So we enjoyed it as much as we could!

    I am pretty sure my daughter, her boyfriend and I were on the same cruise! It was really cool being parked next to the Magic in Nassau and the weather was amazing each day. And I 100% agree that the stress of the PCR test put the anxiety levels through the roof. But it was a huge relief when we got the all clear.
