Day 5- Paris to Barcelona

On day 5 we said goodbye to the City of Lights and boarded a plane to head to Barcelona. I wanted to mention our hotel in Paris first. It was so wonderful and the location was perfect. We were perfectly centered around every big thing in Paris and we had a metro stop just a few stops away. Everyone at the hotel was so helpful and made our stay so comfortable!

My Hotel in Paris- Opera St Georges!



They were out of baby cots, so they brought us up another bed, King Kade called the middle :)

After a quick flight, we made it to Barcelona. After going through customs, catching the train, and a short walk we made it to our hotel. And I have to say that our hotel in Barcelona was right acros the street from the Mediterrean and was a LUXURY compared to our hotel in Paris. It was so nice and so comfortable. I was so so so so so so so happy with our hotel here :) So was Bryan :) We settled in, cleaned up, and headed out to go walk down the famous Las Ramblas. It was fun, but most of the shops were closing for the day when we got there. We enjoyed it though. We ventured over to La Boqueria, a famous market in Barcelona. And also wondered up our favorite square! We finished the walk down Las Ramblas which ended at a huge harbor. We found the closest metro and headed over to La Sagrada Familia. We were planning on touring the church the next day but we really wanted to see it lite up at night. I have to say that this church is with out a doubt the most amazing thing either of us had ever seen. The outside alone was something to start at for hours. It was breathtaking and like NOTHING we had ever seen before. Seeing the outside at night only got us more excited to go back the next day to tour the inside.
