la sagrada familia

Every now and then the stars align accommodation-wise and that's what happened to us. We knew that our place in Barcelona had a view of La Sagrada Familia, but we were thoroughly stunned by how close we actually were. When we booked the owner didn't know about the amazing light show that was to be every hour nightly during our stay - he could have charged much much more just for the front row seats! The streets below us would fill with thousands of people out to watch the music and light display on the side of the still-under construction church. (They say it will be finished in 2026, by the way).
