This wednesday we went to Parc Güell, which is a beautiful park designed by Gaudi. It is situated at the top of a mountain and has the most incredible view!

After walking to the center of the park the teachers allowed us to walk around freely and experience the park. The boys (including Jared from Pingree, Boston) went to climb the mountain and when we claimed the top it felt like all of Barcelona lay at our feet.

We  walked around in the park for about an hour and saw the beautiful design Gaudi had drawn.

In the afternoon I had a 1,5 hour siesta, because we had been walking so much around in the park. Our plan for the day was to go watch flamingo in the evening, so at half past eight we were once again standing on La Rambla trying to find our to “Tarantos” where we were to watch flamingo. We were all very excited about it, and the show lived up to all of our expectations. The instruments were introduced one by one and they all complimented each other very nicely. It’s difficult to describe the sensation, but it was very overwhelming to sit in the little dark room and watch such an agressive dance.
