The beauty of the world...or Spain, at least

Barcelona is "una cuidad con mucho ritmo," or a city with a lot of rhythm. And while I love to write, sometimes the only way for me to capture the beauty of the world is through my third eye - my camera lens. 
On La Rambla, street performers dress up in extravagant costumes in hopes that people will drop them a few pennies. 

Park Guell has the most fantastic architecture. Gaudi makes everything look like a cartoon brought to life. 

La Pedrera, another of Gaudi's works, is simply magnificent on Paseo de Gracia. 

A fun sculpture by Barceloneta, or the port of Barcelona. The Ferris wheel on top of Tibidabo. Some of the detailed work at El Valle de Los Caidos, where Franco is buried. 
A view of Toledo.
