Tibidabo

This past weekend my boyfriend and I visited Tibibado mountain for fun.  It took a while to get there but the view was amazing and it was really worth it! Although there isn't much up there I really enjoyed seeing the whole entire city.  Tibidabo had a amusement park and a big church, the Temple of Sagrat Cor, that you can see from all of Barcelona.  I think that Tibidabo is an icon for the city and it something that if you are studying here you should visit.  ALthough we did not go into the amusement park (too expensive) we still walked around and saw all the fun rides.  The church was pretty and I'm glad that I went up there.  It took a metro ride, then a tram car ride, then a funicular to get all the way to the top.  Since we needed the exercise we decided to walk down.  The church took over 60 years to build and the amusement park is the oldest in Barcelona and still has most of its original rides.  One thing I thought was cool was the Panoramic view of Barcelona. Since it was a pretty clear day we could see everything, from the Sagrada Familia, to the beach all the way past Montjuiic.
I thought this was a really cool photo with the plane ride and the view of Barcelona in the background
