I was lucky enough to take a summer trip to Spain with my husband – I just flew back last night and whew are my arms tired! Yeah, I know – but you expected it, didn’t ya? Anywho – can I just tell you what great architecture that Spain has? Back hundreds and even thousands of years ago, they had the forethought to build buildings that not only withstood the test of time (yes, most are still standing today), but the attention to detail is outstanding! Here in America it seems that we tend to throw it up and hope it sticks, but they took years, and sometimes hundreds of years to complete projects. In fact, in Barcelona, the Sagrada Familia (church) was started back in the late 1800’s and they’re STILL working on it today! Some may say, “But how are you to get anything done if it takes you that long?” But to that I say, certain things just take TIME. You can see samples of Antoni Gaudi’s amazing architecture at the official site at http://www.sagradafamilia.org. [1]
Oh, just wait for my photos…
Either way, I’m back – and I’ll be posting some photos for you all and will show you some of the great designs and functional living spaces that the Spanish use that we could learn from. Oh yeah – they walk EVERYWHERE! No wonder they can all afford to have a sangria and café con leche for lunch!
