Day 14: Barcelona Day 2.5, more hop on/hop off

So, we woke up to rain. Just enough to make riding the hop on/off bus a bit wet and uncomfortable. But we went anyhow. Saw the west side of Barcelona (need more time, or another trip (jeje) to see all the sites). We did go to an awesome cathedral. Huge, cathedral that holds 98,787 believers, open to the air, partly sheltered, and arranged as an amphitheater of sorts. It lacks the ornamentation of more traditional places of worship, but it does have a multimedia pantheon that rivals any other. I'm speaking of the mecca of futbol, Camp Nou - home of the FC Barcelona. Okay, I'm not kidding when I say it's a religious experience going in there. But it's also like DisneyLand as they make you feel great as they take your money and you smile all the way out the gates back to the tour bus. :-) Barça. Més que un club!!
