I'd love to spend more time in Barcelona .. and get a chance to see the Sagrada Familia ...inside and out - it looks just amazing, but had realised I probably need to read about the Church to get a feel for the building.<br /><br />I agree about Picasso .. but I saw a tv programme given by Michael Portillo (he is half Spanish) on Guernica and that opened my eyes ... and the more I don't understand about painting, generally everything, the more interesting it becomes and starts to make sense ... <br /><br />Love the photos - be they yours or postcards ... it's always seemed a good alternative to me .. cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945050858396741262.post-44536170471926274592013-08-27T17:07:24.441+02:002013-08-27T17:07:24.441+02:00Your holiday photos are spectacular!
