Europe Trip Day 4 : Barcelona - Barceloneta Beach & Gothic Quarters

Barceloneta Beach
We decided to explore Barceloneta beach today. We took the metro and alighted at Barceloneta. From the station, we strolled for about 10 minutes before reaching the shore. There was not much sun at this time of the year and hence the beach was quite deserted when we were there.

Europe Trip Day 3 : Barcelona - Sagrada Familia & Montjuic Castle & La Boqueria Market

Barcelona Sagrada Familia

This morning, we will be exploring the Sagrada Familia. This church is an awesome piece of art and architecture designed by Gaudi. Work started on the Sagrada Familia in 1882 and till now, the building of the church is still on-going. The church towers into the sky and is a prominent building from anywhere in Barcelona.

Europe Trip Day 1: Barcelona - La Rambla & Magic Fountain of Montjuic

Barcelona Espanya

We took a Singapore Airline flight from Singapore to Barcelona, which was our first destination for this trip. The flight took about 13 hours. We spent the time watching movies, snacking and resting during the long journey. It was difficult to catch any sleep because of the aircraft noise. The Audio Technica Noise Cancelling In-Ear Headphones was quite helpful in reducing the ambient noise but still not enough to fully tame the engine roar.
