Park Guell


 Okay so Park Guell  is a UNESCO World Heritage site with the peculiar architecture of Antoni  Gaudi. Gaudi, for me was like the sugar coting of Barcelona, his buildings are so detailed, colourful and intricate. A "candy land" style of architecture lets call it.  As for the park it self,  it was originally supposed to be an upscale  housing development in 1900. Designed to harmoniously combine nature and the city in a living environment, inspired by an English garden. The project failed  and only a few show homes were ever built.  The park however is GORGEOUS.  You will feel like you are in "Whoville" and in an Indiana Jones movie, all at once.










 So many painstaking details on every aspect of all the buildings, roofs chimneys door ways...











Little Spanish babies going on a field trip, how darling, they looked like turtles from far away. 


Who doesn't love to play in the dirt? 







"No I don't think I'll leave the house today or ...ever you see, I live in a place called paradise..." 

I can't even describe the view this family must have.









 Gaudi's family home complete with an, I want to call it, "enchanted garden walkway" (so I shall) that you can see below.




 More amazing tile work...

Nice to meet you Barcelona



How perfect fresh Dasies and Spanish Elle,  how did they know? 




 

I refused to bring a coat, it must be the Canadian in me... but as a result I have to layer, layer, layer.
I can't wait for the day I look back on all of these pictures and pass harsh judgement on my puffy outfit choices. *Sigh* (...Should have brought a coat)






 You want a picture of little old me?! Well if u insist... let me just strike the perfect man pose.
