Casa Batllo y la noche: Batllo House and the night


GAUDI MUST HAVE BEEN ONE OF THOSE "CRAZY/GENIUS" PEOPLE

TERRACE ROOM-flooded with sunlight

ROB AND MON at the Mushroom-shaped fireplace seating

THE FLOOR PLAN-check out those curves!

THE STAINED GLASS OF THE FACADE WINDOWS-gorgeous!

HIDDEN STAIRCASE-there seemed to be lots of these...I was curious...boo for rules
THE DRAGON'S BACK-not the colors that I expected, but neat just the same

THE TOP FLOOR OF THE ATRIUM-yeah--it was pretty intense

After Casa Batllo, we checked out the HUGE art supply/anything-you-could-possibly-want-to-buy store, then grabbed lunch, went to Aldana for a bit, then hit up studio til 8:30, when we went home to get ready to go out. I walked to dinner with the group, ate about 6 rolls and had water while they waited for their food, then peaced out to meet Alfredo at 11. We walked down Las Ramblas, checked out a British bar that had fake trees placed throughout the interior--it was that whole "indoor/outdoor" theme-haha. Then we walked over across the water to MarMagnum (a big mall), and up on the roof, where at night, the mall stays busy by attracting anyone into the club scene with about 5 or 6 different dance clubs/bars on top! We went to "Sunset" and danced until about 3 or 4, then headed back and just talked as we walked back to Aldana until 6 am. Yes, this type of schedule is actually NORMAL here!
