La Sagrada Familia

Next stop of the day is the famous La Sagrada Familia. We had about 20 or 30 minutes before our tour so we stopped by a little café on the street and had drinks and snacks. We had the best almonds which were in a clear plastic bag and tasted different than any almonds I've ever had here for about a couple euros. On to the church where our guide walked us around the outside explaining everything and then a short line in.
I saw someone asking a few people to take their hats off in the church and being that  it was a hot day,  quite a few people had caps and hats on. When you walked into this church it took your breath away. It is so amazing and everywhere you look you are taking pictures but you just can't capture what you are seeing. We didn't take the stairs to the top so maybe if I ever go back I might have to conquer that.  A tour down below to see the timelines of this creation and it is pretty amazing to see how he designed it with weights. After we were done we took the Metro which was right by the church to get back to our hotel . Here are some photos of the church.
