Gaudi Cathedral - Sangred Familia

This is both obscene and beautiful at the same time.. Work started on this cathedral in 1889 (give or take a few years) and it is not expected to be finished for another 30.

Sangria

Add 5 spoonfulls of sugar to 1 Litre of red wine. Add fruits such as oranges, lemons, melons and grapes and serve extremely cold... sensational

hmm..

ive got nothing..

Camp Nou

Camp Nou

This place is enormous with a capacity of over 90000.

Hostel Levante

Great hostel that we stayed in - around 40 pounds each for two nights - 3 minute walk to Las Ramblas and right amongst the shops and cafes. It was a 2 minute walk into the amazing Barri Gotic Quarter of the city - highly recommend this place

Benjimang went to Egypt!

I went to Egypt! Yes, this is going back a couple of months, but hey... better late than never.

First night in Cairo and I was introduced to the Shisha. I can't say no to a local custom can I?
