For those of you seeking a getaway in the great outdoors, a holiday in Costa Del Sol, Spain is one of the most affordable and exciting options.

Barcelona: Scenes from Eixample
I’ve been back from Spain for a month and a half, but I’m still thinking about the cities, the sea, the food and the people! Many of you have already seen my postcards from Girona, snapshots of Madrid, posts about Barcelona’s “Block of Discord”, Catalonian wine country and more. For Travel Photo Thursday, I want to share some photos of Barcelona’s Eixample Disrict, the heart of the city’s “raux i seny” design culture and most of its Moderniste architecture.
Barcelona’s Block of Discord
Passeig de Gràcia is Barcelona’s grand avenue of elegant shops, upscale hotels and Moderniste architectural gems exuding the Eixample district’s “la rauxa i el seny” design culture…..What came as more of a surprise was Illa de la Discòrdia.
