Sept. 25 - a year ago

The doctors in Catalunya have been great. I went for a final check up this morning and my blister is all healed, but still sore.

Getting ready to go to Sitges

Back in Barcelona, we stopped to look  at some amazing buildings in Passeig de Gracia

We ended the day with a tapas dinner at Restaurant Rene

It was another lovely day :)

A little bit of Catalan history..

 In September 1973 the 25 year old anarchist militant, Salvador Puig Antich was wounded during a shootout with Guardia Civil on the pavement just outside the bar.

In March 1974, despite pleas for clemency by the Vatican and other international entities, Salvador Puig Antich became the last person to be executed by the garotte. (garrote vil) under the dictatorship of Francisco Franco.
