Sagrada Familia--No puedo creerlo: Sagrada Familia--I can't believe it!


So...basically Prof. Vidal has mad hookups and got us a tour of Sagrada Familia, masterpiece of Gaudi (which seems like an impossible project, not even half-way completed and already approximately 100 years in the making! Ridiculous, right?! Our tour guide is none-other than the project architect himself...NOT Gaudi (who was hit by a tram and killed in the early 1900's I believe.

Yes Mon....we're going to the top on a rickety little elevator!

AWWWW-PROFESSOR VIDAL!!

Breathtaking

Ceiling detail...up close and personal (constructed with that "Catalan Technology"-we aren't really sure what this phrase referred to...but it kept surfacing during this tour)

Sean and Vic

Tom and Bri

No words...and never enough pictures

Cece, our professor--super excited about the tour...just before realizing she has to go down the mountain of stairs we came up...and she's afraid of heights...

Ceiling detail--hundreds of ft. above the floor of the church

Yeah...we were backstage at the big show...
