Harmonica


Today I got a harmonica from the music shop on the Ramblas. It had lots of instruments including guitars and banjos. We caught the Metro to Tibidabo to go to the Science Museum Cosmocaixa. It was cool. You should try putting two fingers fingertip to fingertip and horizontal in front of your eyes and looking past them. What do you see? It’ll take a while to see it. There was an aquarium, which was a forest. It had stingrays and fish and turtles and birds and turkeys.

Then we went to the Sagrada Familia. It is a big church designed by Gaudi, like lots of things in Barcelona. He died before it was finished and they’re still building it. They seem to have almost finished, they just need to do the staircase. The floor was slippery and slidey. There were colourful windows, especially blue. It showed us how he got his ideas. Like for twirly pillars he had a cylinder of sticks that twirled around. He drew his inspiration from things like beehives, trees, palm fronds and all nature.
