This is where we started, isn’t it? Awestruck by the amazing spectacle that is Gaudi’s La Sagrada Familia. I can’t resist another couple of images.
But it would be wrong to stop there. Barcelona is so much more! A kaleidoscope of colour and interwoven parts. Come with me, one last time!
Dangle your feet by the waterfront Cross the wavy bridge Admire the yachts Gaze down from Montjuic Watch the fountains trickle Blow big bubbles Congregate in Placa de Catalunya Not the bridge of sighs! Catalan pride Art Deco CafΓ© culture Sacred Heart of Jesus The one I missed, captured at the airport!
Thanks, Becky, for being a wonderful hostess, and for letting me revisit Barcelona. I’d forgotten how magnificent it was.
#SquareUp (plus 3 oblongs) P.S. Did anyone see this from Andrew?
So wonderful!!
It’s a beautiful city, Lynn π π
Wow, truly magnificent!
It’s a beautiful place and I’ve enjoyed ‘spending’ the last month there, Miriam π€£ππ
Lovely photos, Jo. I missed most as work has been very busy this month, but I hope to keep up my connections moving forward. π
I realised you weren’t around much, Clare. This kind of blogging can become a fulltime job, if you let it. Nice to have your company π π
Thank you Jo. Dean and I have been really busy with work, but weβre over the hump now and things will be a little quieter over the next month at least. π
oh cafe culture and the airport ones are favs
and what a fun energized post here !
It was a great series, Yvette, and I enjoyed it far more than I expected. The commitment to blog every day is a big one for me, but what a beautiful city it was to revisit! π π Back to the mundane now. Thanks for your company, hon!
Your head must swivel the entire time you visit! Everywhere the eye lands you find something spectacular! π
If ever there was a city for head swivelling, Debbie, it’s this one! So glad to be able to share it with you π π
Is the final image (at the airport) a reflection of a fountain? or a painting? It looks spectacular!
A reflection of the fountains at Monjuic, floodlit at night, but only on certain evenings. In the winter it wasn’t possible to see them while I was there. My one disappointment π π
Oh dear, it is so disappointing when you are looking forward to seeing it. I hope you will be able to catch it the next time you travel there!
Your series certainly went out with a bang, Jo. Barcelona was awesome and I think you for taking us there. Welcome to February.

White Rabbit! Or Conejo Branco, as we say in these parts, Janet π π I enjoyed every second and thanks for coming along with me.
Loved travelling with you Jo through your squares! The grandeur of Barcelona captured by you has inspired me to consider visiting the place in the near future… π
I so hope you can, Rita! There is so much to enjoy there. Thank you for your lovely company π π
A shame you missed the fountains, they were amazing. But there is so much to see in Barcelona, you need much longer than a few days. And what an excellent theme you chose for the squares. I wonder what you’ll decide upon in April.
I already know but, of course, it depends on Becky. π π Hopefully try a few different things in the meantime. Thanks, Jude!
Your posts have been so enjoyable Jo. I’ve loved seeing Barcelona through your lens.
Thanks a lot, Carol! Back to walking now π π
Superb, Iβve enjoyed the tour this month.
I’m happy for that, Anabel. So have I π π Thank you!
There can never be too many photos of Sagrada! Beautiful pictures, Jo π
It’s a star turn, isn’t it, Aiva? Thanks for enjoying it with me π π
I’ve never been to Spain so I’ve really enjoyed seeing Barcelona through your eyes Jo. My favourite of these just has to be that stained glass window, it’s stunning π
It’s far from a typical Spanish city, Eunice, but it’s certainly one to see, if you ever get the chance. I love the stained glass too π π
These are all amazing. Memories do linger long. Fabulous post π
Thanks so much, darlin π π
The photos are so inspiring and those ceilings are amazing still to look back on! What a nice trip through your photos:)
So glad you enjoyed it, Kathleen! I wasn’t sure when I started out but I really enjoyed returning to Barcelona too π π
Thanks, Jo, for helping us spend time with you in Barcelona and with Gaudi. Your images were magnificent and really did justice to the man and his work.
Thanks so much, Mari! I may well never go back, but then I always do prefer to go forwards. The memories will linger long. π π
