Plaça de la Vergonya




Today Raquel and I went in to Barcelona to help (in our way) with a rally in support of people who were trying to do the same as Monica's group had done in the plaza and to help prevent people from being evicted from their homes because of new developments that a sprouting up all over the city. For those who don't know the plaza was going to be converted into an underground parking garage, but through a concerted effort with the people who live in the area they managed to keep the plaza with a more human character and hopefully to maintain the neighbourhood for the people who are living there.
I also helped (?) prepare the biggest paella that I have ever seen. Actually all I did was help to clean the pan for cooking the paella.
