Our Trip To Barcelona

Barcelona is unlike any place we have been before. It is a beautiful small seaside city. It was very easy to learn the city, mike and I quickly learned our way around and got most places on foot. Beautiful carving in stone decorate many of the buildings. Mike Landed in 26th place for top Sales representatives in 2012 and was awarded with this trip. It was an incredible trip not only because of the location but how well they treated us. The put us up in a super expensive hotel, showered us with expensive gifts daily. Hosted extravagant dinners and parties every night. They just fed us and fed us and fed us beautiful multi-course meals with entertainment. The Highlight of our trip was a Gaudi tour. Words can't really describe his amazing work so we will let the pictures do the talking:

 

I went on a tour of the gothic quarters while Mike was in a business meeting and then after I took him back there to show him some things. Here are some things that we saw:

 

 

The two columns are the remains of the city wall. The rounded top on the right is from the Romans and the flat top is from the 13th-14th century.

We also went on a tour an hour and a half outside of Barcelona, about 1/2 hour from the French border to a small town called Girona that had lots of well preserved buildings from the medieval times and earlier. 









And a few more photos of things we saw walking around the city by ourselves:
