Backlog: Barcelona to Girona

My last day in Barcelona was spent making one last walk through the city streets and up to Park Guell to try and get some morning daylight pictures. Here's a few last shots that were taken in the city.


The contrast between Guadi's more modernistic, expressionist art and the ancient Corinthian columns and Roman walls that were just around the corner from the hostel, hidden with the narrow cooridors of the Barri Gothic district was wonderfully unique.

A Roman Wall- it was impressively massive, and just right there standing quietly in the middle of the city

A view of my hostel room, which I shared with 6 other girls. My next flight flew out of Girona, so I made the hour or so train ride back to the little city, making it in time for an evening stroll and a beautiful sunset.

Have I mentioned that I love the narrowness of the streets?

Houses along the city wall

One one side of the city the houses are built into the city wall. On the other, they sit at the edge of the river.

At day's end. Next stop... Paris.
