wagner pá

Wagner Pá, a musician from Brazil on tour in Austria, today said on Radio FM4 about Barcelona that the city is a great theme park for tourists.

Well, I have to agree, even if this harsh judgement seems to be a little bit unfair: one might just as well call quite a number of valleys in the Austrian Alps theme parks for tourists, too. Same difference, too many tourists in both cases.

Nevertheless, Barcelona still is a beautiful city (as well as the Alps still are wonderful).

Probably I should return to Barcelona sometime, not as tourist but to live there for a while; surely would give some insights.

(As for the Picture: Gaudí's Sagrada Familia; a film scan, only mediocre quality but acceptable, I think.)
