On good advice I visited the Sagrada Familia by Gaudi. Take a look:
The Sagrada Familia has two sides, a facade on each,
This is the Nativity Facade:
God Bless the Shepards.
All pretty nice, until you get to the Roman Soldiers
Then...there's the Passion Facade:
Can't get much more Goth than that, no matter how black your eyeliner is...
...and that was what I saw in Barcelona. I figured I could try and race through the town seeing everything that I could, or I could see two major things and spend my time devoted to them. I think I made the right choice.
Will update on the trip to Madrid tomorrow.

OMG, are those dead BABIES at the feet of the roman soldiers?!
Yes, I believe they are...
...if I remember right, it was under Herod's orders.
you do remember right. so was that a church? freaking sweet architecture!
Yeah...sorry, I didn't really explain it. I don't know much about architecture, so please excuse anything that I mis-explain, but it is a Neo-Gothic Cathedral, designed by Antoni Gaudi. It was started in 1882 and is scheduled for completion in, get this, 2026.
What!? that is CRAZY!!!
