    Faith Hope and Charity are the Christian virtues you both received at your Baptism 👶. Antoni Gaudi had a reason for every thing he created, that is for sure. I will be visiting this blog often as it is far interesting to see the first time one looks at it. What history you both walked on!!!

    There’s so much going on with this amazing cathedral! Nice pics.

    1. It was overwhelming actually! With all the people and so much to see while trying to follow the guided audio tour, we almost forgot we had tickets to go up the elevator for a Top View!!! It was only seeing a line up inside the cathedral, wondering what it was for then find out, connect and remember that we had tickets for a Top View!!! 🙂

    2. And thank you for complementing my pictures!!!! 🙂
