Costa Brava, 2022

Chris Slemp

Took me a while to get to it, but here’s the best photos from our week in southern Spain with the girls and Mauro. Our villa was in Canyelles outside of Loret de Mar, with trips to surrounding areas like Girona and Barcelona.

The view from the villa, the beach and cafe in Canyelles, and the kids enjoying the pool.
Tossa de Mar – could’ve spent longer here!
Platja Fonda and my first Spanish paella
Girona Cathedral (yes, a Game of Thrones location)
1000 year old Book of Revelation and Creation tapestry
More around Girona: Arab Baths and the river
Blanes
Barcelona Gothic Quarter

The rest of the pics are all La Sagrada Familia, the most unique and one of the most inspiring cathedrals I’ve seen. Well worth a visit if you’re ever in Barcelona.

East facade: the organic, birth-themed side
The birth-themed east
The death-themed west
In the nave. The columns are supposed to represent trees.
We went up the east tower, where you can see construction up close.
The angular, “Passion” (death-themed) facade

An amazing trip. We’ll be back!
