Beautiful building, rude security guards

5.00Truly the most beautiful building I have ever seen, I side and out. However, we got there 45 minutes after our ticket was set for - we knew it was a stretch that we would be able to get in but our hopes were high - the man checking the tickets looked at them and told us to go talk to one of the ladies (I’m not quite sure what her job was or of her name). We got over there, my dad showed her the ticket and she apologized and explained why she would not be able to let us in. It was very heart breaking to hear but these things happen - we will hopefully be able to come back someday. Something that caught my attention when the *very kind* lady was explaining the tickets to us though was her co-worker. A blonde woman, maybe 25 at oldest. She was talking to a third women - equal in age - in Spanish, assuming we couldn’t understand. She said “¡Qué americano más tonto y gordo! ¿No sabe decir la hora?” - “What a dumb fat American! Can he not tell time?” then scoffed and chuckled to herself. While it was a silly and avoidable mistake that cost us our entry, I still found the whole ordeal quite rude and disrespectful. She just assumed we didn’t speak Spanish when it was only my father that had spoken a single word.
Beautiful afternoon with the Sagrada Familia

5.00We had the pleasure of being the only two on a tour with Rosa so got a lot of extra attention. She is super knowledgeable about the Sagrada Família and was able to show us some of the more intricate details. We thoroughly enjoyed her presence, patience and enthusiasm whilst on tour. A true sight to behold and a wonderful tour guide. Thank you Rosa 😊
