"Theaters are the new Church of the Masses - where people sit huddled in the dark listening to people in the light tell them what it is to be human." -1930's theater critic

More Barcelona
Here are some native Barcelonans dancing in the square in front of the Cathedral. It was so charming. They all knew the steps of the dance and they were all very engaged in doing the dance well. Again, I was struck by how different Europeans are from us Americans. Just try and get a few hundred Americans to dance in front of one of our cathedrals. You know, for free.
Of course, we do regularly go in to our cathedrals, which many of the Europeans do not....
Sr. Anne "Nunblog" Flanagan, fsp, and Karen 'Some Have Hats" Hall on the waterfront in Barcelona. We were on our way to our first of many servings of sangria and paella.
I don't really like Barcelona. It feels a little out of control to me. And a bit decadent.
