18 Feb 2010--Park Guell

So I took an afternoon jog in Park Guell in the northern part of Barcelona. Um...it was really hilly!! Also, I was sporting my Underarmor...I don't think Europeans have seen UA before...um...ya...
This park was funded by the industrialist Eusebio Guell, man who grew wealthy from the slave trade. The buildings in this park were created by a eccentric, Modernist artist named Gaudi who is the pride and joy of Barcelona!

This is picture of Barcelona from one of the highest point in the park. If you look in the middle of the picture, you can see a row of trees. These trees line the most famous street in Barcelona--Las Ramblas! I will be going there tonight! Yeah!
