Birthday day

Today we celebrated my birthday. It wasn't today but on Wednesday. Then, we gathered at home some friends and my sisters and we had some sandwiches and some cake while we spoke till late night. Today we did the big party.

We went to Barcelona to spend the day. In the morning we went to MACBA (Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona, Barcelona's Contemporary Art Museum) to see an exposition of Robert Whitman called Playback. It was fine, though we didn't really like it. Too much anxiety and destroy.

Then we went to the borough of Barceloneta to a tapas restaurant called Jai-Ca where we had tremendously good food.

In the evening we went to the theatre to watch Der Würgeengel, a Karst Woundstra's play based on Buñuel's film El ángel exterminador. It was good, though, if Buñuel surrealistlist, when it has gone through the German point of view, it becomes too different for our understanding. BTW, it was subtitled.

It has been a perfect day. I love Barcelona, it is such a beautiful city. I do love London, too, but this city, Barcelona, is really a walk-around kind of city.

When we had just arrived, while having a coffee, a bunch of Gipsy children came over and tried to steal to a British man. They where stealing him a €100 and the wallet but, thanks to my friends, who were just next to his table [I was in the other corner], we could get the money and the girls to get the wallet. Then, out of a sudden, three policemen on disguise appeared. They didn't know each other so they were showing the identification to one another.

It is amazing how many times we've seen and heard of robatories in this city. This didn't use to happen before. And how many people lives in the streets! And, forgive me, while we are helping other countries with humanitarian help. Yes, I do think we have to help who is in need, of course. But what about the people that everyday is dying in our streets? Is any country going to send a plane full of houses for them? Or full of jobs? Or hope? Or low-rate's mortgages?

I don't think so.
