Spain, Portugal & Gilbraltar Trip 2024 - Day 2 - Dinner in Eurostars Rey Fernado

Most of us did not sleep for the last 24 hours I guess, so looking forward to quickly finished our dinner and head to bed. I am surprised I did not get jet lag, timing seems able to adjust like I was in Singapore.

Dinner was in our hotel. Very Spanish style, no rice hahaha but I am ok as long as I have potato, I loved potatoes.







Potatoes, pasta, vegetables and fish (I think it was seabass)

After dinner, it was a good night sleep before heading for the next sightseeing tomorrow.

Spain, Portugal & Gibraltar - Day 2 - Sagrada Familia Church

After lunch, our first sightseeing was of course the famous Sagrada Familia Church - unfinished Roman Catholic Church in Barcelona.

The Church was the works of Antoni Gaudi and remained unfinished and still in construction. Took more than 140 years and still building.

















We entered into the church and it was so beautiful and with lots of natural lighting.











Very beautiful indeed, lights from the sun. Must visit place.

Spain, Portugal & Gibraltar Trip 2024 - Day 2 - Spanish 3 course lunch

After landing in Barcelona, Spain, we were whisked straightaway for a 3 course spanish lunch.
For starters, we had some stacks of tomato and eggplant, top on top of each other.

For the main course, we had deep fried sea bass with potato. It was quite big chunk, we did not finished all as we were still very full from the airline food. We aplogised to the restaurant as they felt     weird the whole group of tourist did not finished their food hahaha.

Dessert was pumpkin pudding I think. Was served cold.
