Mom, my siblings, and I decided to take the subway to a block where we could see La Pedrera and 4 other famous buildings on it. Unfortunately, we were there about 4 hours and only saw 2 of the structures that we wanted to see. Or maybe the 3 other buildings were right in front of our eyes and somehow we didn't see them. We went around the block one and a half times, which I was not in favor of, and stopped at a few places for 10 minutes and got nothing, or maybe 1 thing. Eventually we found this interesting building that had some cool designs. Then after a couple more hours, we found La Pedrera!
I'll go ahead and tell you I took about 80 pictures with my camera and Kathryn took another 20. So we decided we could take a tour of La Pedrera. We looked at the 1st floor which had some clay models in a glass frame and a few movies on the history of the building. Up to the roof. There's like 300 good pictures to take out here and I took like 30. Believe me, if I had the time . . . You could see the Sagrada Familia from here, there's a little arch where you can get your picture, there's some designs that look really cool. The 3rd floor is Gaudi's apartment building, I think. There were a few bedrooms and a couple bathrooms. I think my favorite place was the roof. There were a lot of good pictures to take there and it was a great view.

I had a great time. When we got home, we showed Dad our pictures. He thought they were nice. Here are a few of them.

Hi Hereford Fam,
Way cool pics Josiah! Sounds like an interesting time over there you all are having. I hope you are adjusting well. I like Jim's story about the secretary's door, that is pretty funny. Don't forget that adapter next time!
Keep up the updates!
Tim and Abby
Hi Tim (and Abby),
I managed to get the computer working by using 4 adapters in series. It is an arrangement only an engineer could appreciate.
Still have not met the secretary, however.
Jim
