We finally made it to the Sagrada Familia today - and we only had to wait in line twice! On our first try, the line was pretty long, so Boyfriend asked if I minded holding our place in the queue while he ran around and took pictures for ten minutes or so. I told him, of course not! And he promptly disappeared for over half an hour. Whoops. I got to the head of line and still saw no sign of him, so I started waving people on in front of me. Soon enough, I had let so many people go by that it wasn't clear to anyone that I'd ever been in line at all! So once he reappeared (and apologized profusely), we ended up just walking back around and queuing up all over again. Fortunately, for such a long line it did move pretty quickly, so we didn't lose too much time on the second go-around.
The cathedral itself was sort of strange for me - I'd been there once before, about five years ago, and they have done a huge amount of construction since then. The last time I came, the whole interior was unfinished and still semi-outdoor, which actually felt a little bit more spiritually inspiring to me - but then, I guess I am a little biased toward construction sites.
We took a few quick pictures in front of the doors of the cathedral - we practically had to get in another line to take photos! There were tons of people trying to edge past one another (and us!) to get snaps in front of these great doors, but no one else had quite such a good photographer as I have.
Oh! And one other sort of cool thing happened today - check this out:
No, not the ad for a Swedish gambling site (although, by all means, check them out - but I get 10% of your winnings) - that's the "Streetstyle" category page on bloglovin.com. Keep scrolling down.
Yeah, um... keep scrolling....
There it is! My little blog is currently #10 on bloglovin's list of "Up & Coming" streetstyle blogs! It turns out I am, in fact, 'up and coming.' (Although I'm not sure why they are under-counting my followers through their own website, but whatever.) So that was a neat little surprise this afternoon - and of course, if you'd like to follow the other emily on bloglovin' and you aren't already, you can click here to subscribe.
