Day Nine was mostly a travel day flying from Barcelona to Madrid, except for our morning spent exploring the amazing interior of La Sagrada Familia!
We got there before it opened and were some of the first people inside!
Our first stop was the elevator, which we rode up to the top of the towers, exploring the innards of the towers, with many lookouts with great vies of facade details and also the current construction of the Mary tower.
Spiral staircase!
Back inside on the ground floor, looking up at the forest!
The gorgeous and bright stained glass windows!
Gaudi designed choir lofts big enough to hold over 1000 singers!

Light on the organ pipes
The Door!
The scenic view created for La Sagrada Familia
Our flight to Madrid was uneventful and upon arriving we headed straight to our hostel -where we had a private room - near Plaza del Sol in the middle of Madrid. And in our deliour state of hunger, stumbled through the streets until we found a place that was open and had vegetarian food for Jess. I then enjoyed my first spanish Paella, before heading back to the hostel to call it a night!
