a view from the other side

this week i ventured to many different areas of the city that i had not yet been to, including parc guell, tibidabo, and kubik. of all of these tibidabo was probably my favorite. parc guell was amazing, but there were too many people. kubik was a bit too built up and far away for a night at the club. the trip up to tibidabo turned out to be more complicated than we expected. we had to navigate through the metro. once we got off we couldn't find the funicular. we had to hike what felt like the top of the mountain in the heat to find it. once we got up there, the views were breathtaking. it was nice to have a panoramic view of the city that wasn't from montjuic, since i have visited there multiple times. the whole area was interesting with a church and a theme park in such a small area. the church at the top had some amazing views. the theme park turned out to be a lot of fun too. most of the rides were small and pretty lame, but turned out to be a lot of fun. besides, they all had unbeatable views.
