Ken Follett’s novel, Pillars of the Earth, is the story of vision and devotion, and the construction of a great cathedral over the course of about 200 years. Throughout Spain there are examples of these great works of faith. In Barcelona there is actually one in progress: Antonio Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia. This incredible cathedral has been under construction since 1882. It is scheduled to be finished around 2025. Of course, you can never tell about these things. I sat this morning in a cafe across the way from the great building and watched them build marveling the entire time.












Great shots of the Catherdral, Paul! I just finished reading \"Pillars\" while on vacation so this is an especailly interesting post… What amazing dedication the builders have to complete such detailed and huge structures.
