We went to Barcelona 2 days ago. We got the train from the town we were in and went on the Metro to Parc Güell. We went to the mosaic section and looked around. We saw pillars with colourful circles of mosaics on the celling, the wobbly colourful mosaic benches, the drippy pillars, wonky mosaic buildings and the mosaic lizard. We fed pigeons from our hands and saw green parrots.

After that we went to the Sagrada Famìlia. The Sagrada Famìlia is a church designed by Gaudi. We got tickets and had tapas while we were waiting. The dorrs of the Sagrada Famìlia have bugs on them. The inside has lots of pillars and stained glass. The pillars are supposed to look like trees that have lost their leaves. It is beautiful.

  7. Eww I would hate to have the pigeon on my head! But it looks amazing. I definitely agree with you the Lizard looks amazing. We've just had our first day of Term 4 and it was very... schooly? If thats the right word!? Could you actually see through the glass or could you just see the patterns?

  9. How did you get the pigeon to land on your head? When my family went they only landed on our arms. The Sagrada Famìlia looks a bit scary, it also looks like it would collapse at any minute. Those drippy pillars look really cool.
