spainishness

No pics, they were taking too long and I'm hungry April 2nd Where do I begin? Where did I leave off? Oh yeah, I was talking about Barcelona and the last thing I said was that I was going to talk to the girl sitting behind me. She’s pretty cool. We’re friends now, and we hung out the next day before she left, then I made some more friends. ___________________________________________________________________________ If you ever walk down La Rambles at night in Barcelona, you will see a thing or two. There are always street performers lining the edge of this 30 foot wide walking lane that divides the two traffic lanes of the main shopping district. There are people dressed up in crazy costumes, and some in lame ones too, and everyone has something to sell, from plants to birds, to bodies. Yeah, there are a lot of prostitutes on the strip at night. They are these little black African girls who look between the ages of 16 and 22, dressed in jeans and hoodies. They don’t look promiscuous, but they don’t have to because they don’t need approaching. You’ll be walking and there she’ll be, in the corner of your eye, closing in on you. They lock onto you, literally. They put their arm around you and then ask you if you’re interested etc. One night I had three girls come up and talk to me. I chatted with one of them for a bit, and it always makes me wonder how often these girls get to talk to a guy who isn’t looking for something else. _________________________________________________________________________ Sunday I went around the city with some new friends checking out the Gaudi stuff. After that I went to Sevilla where you can pick oranges walking down the sidewalk. They are a bit tart but worth eating at least one for sure. _________________________________________________________________________ Man, Sevilla seems so long ago now. It’s one of those places to just chill out and walk around. I checked out a bull fighting arena on an off day, and everywhere you walk looks good. Had some Tapas and jet scene to Berlin.
