# Sabadell/Barcelona, January 2013

A trip with my friend Iria Massotti to her home town, Sabadell, and some Barcelona tourism.

There’s an extraordinary range of architecture in Barcelona…

…but the Sagrada Familia is in a league of its own.

Coffee pause.

The beach too was more impressive for its man-made than its natural construction. Even the sand is put there by hand!

In (or rather near) Sabadell, the cool place to go for coffee is the local airfield.
