Barcelona

One of the first mum and daughter trips I took was with my mum about ten years ago and we had a marvellous time. We stayed just off Las Ramblas and visited all the Gaudi sites. We took a sight-seeing bus tour of which there are quite a few and we hopped on and off at stops such as Parc Guell and Casa Battlo enjoying the most remarkable architecture. Travel is a wonderful way to make precious memories.
