That's cool. Do you have a lot of pics? I'm afraid I wouldn't do any work and just day dream about trips

sorry, I meant a lot of pics from magazines on your wall at work. Yeah, Europe is pretty cool, and much more compact than North America. Easier to visit in shorter periods of time

I'd say original.

Extract from wikipedia:

"The Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia (Catalan : Catedral de la Santa Creu i Santa Eulàlia,Spanish : Catedral de la Santa Cruz y Santa Eulalia), also known as Barcelona Cathedral, is the Gothic cathedral  and seat of the Archbishop  of BarcelonaSpain .[1]  The cathedral was constructed from the 13th to 15th centuries, with the principal work done in the 14th century. The cloister, which encloses the Well of the Geese (Font de les Oques) was completed in 1448.[2]  In the late 19th century, the neo-Gothic façade was constructed over the nondescript exterior that was common to Catalan churches.[3]  The roof is notable for its gargoyles , featuring a wide range of animals, both domestic and mythical."

Thanks and the age of the cathedral is the answer. Could not allocate the ornaments of the parapet.
