We are now in Barcelona for a few days visiting with our good friends Jim and Deb. This is the Barcelona cathedral. Today is Catalonia's national day so there are lots of activities going on, plus a strong independance theme. Amanda making friends. This monkey type chap is the logo for a local drink, a bit like ouzo. A big thing in Barcelona is the creation of these human towers. The challange is to go as high as possible. Big people at the bottom and smaller as you go up. I was particularly impressed with the young girls, who only look 5 or 6 years old, who climb right to the top. They go up like monkeys, amazing. There were half a dozern teams there taking turns to make their tower, the tallest going up 7 levels, so at least 10 or 12 meters. One tower collapsed with a few people having to visit the attending ambulance.
