weekend snapshot

home **





This is the Old Port in Barcelona: before and after dinner last Saturday. See the Montjuic hill in the background, which is translated as Hill of the Jews in the medieval Catalan language, or as a corruption of Latin Mons Jovicus, that is, Hill of Jupiter, according to the wiki.

    At night, the boats seem to sit on glass! These are wonderful, Mar. Thanks for the info about the place, too. I love what I see and learn at your blog.

    Beautiful shots and I like the way you captured the hill in the background. Bill and I used to do a lot of sailing and I love the look of sailboats in a harbor.

    Wonderful view. Just last night I was talking to a guy who has been in Barcelona. He was telling me how much he loved the beaches there. I hope to see them before I die!
