Sally, we have never been to Barcelona but it was on our list of places to see along with the islands of Majorca and Ibiza. Definitely still hope to get there one day. We have been three times to the Costa del Sol. While there, we visited the Picasso museum in Malaga. I could spend a lot of time examining all the paintings and sculptures but I am always with people who aren’t as interested as I am in the art. I think my favourite city in Spain is Sevilla. We were fortunate to be there during the Feria di Abril and also during Holy Week. Thanks for reminding me of another beautiful place to visit while in Spain.

I also seem to remember you visiting a place called Ronda? It isn’t much fun when others don’t have the same interests, particularly in art, but then my sister and I can go to a gallery and she will spend far much more time than me looking and reading, whereas I am happy to stroll by or if something really takes my fancy, take time looking at the detail.

This piece makes me want to pack my bags and just go to Barcelona right away, and wrap my arms around a Gaudi building :) Thanks so much for this post. I love Gaudi's work. I will visit in 2026 when Sagrada Familia completes 100 years from start of construction

Thank you. I had another compliment today, I was in the Apple Store and whilst waiting opened up todays post when the staff member who was designated to serve me came up and saw the painting. She was interested in the post also so I showed her another country which happened to have the stones I did recently. I think I may end up with another follower lol…
