More to do this loooong weekend!!!
So what are you going to do this long weekend???? Kate gave you yesterday advice about the wide range of museums to visit and the cool IMAX in Port Vell. I will inform you about other activities such as: Which movies to go to and where, which exhibitions are interesting to see, new restaurants to go and different bars to enjoy.
Do you prefer independent movies o big American productions?? Would you go for an original version with subtitles???? Go to cinema VERDI in Carrer Verdi, Gracia. It is a very cousy cinema with independent movies. Last weekend I watched a French film : Paris, je táime, a collection of different short love stories in different parts of Paris, very good and different, you will see Paris from a completely point of view. You can also see in Verdi the new film of the handsome Gael García Bernal: La ciencia del sueño, a funny film in English: Stephane goes back to France to accept a job that he thinks will help to develop his huge creativity, however… It is a surrealist film full of fantasy and completely different to everything you have seen by this young actor. Very funny indeed.
If you feel to do something different and it is still raining, you can go to the Caixa Forum and see an exhibition of the famous Spanish designer Agatha Ruiz de la Prada. 59 dresses have been chosen together with other objects to represent her bright and colourful designs, or you can also go to Fundación Tapiés and see a very interesting Photo exhibition called: En los márgenes de Europa, a collection of videos and visual art that takes us from the Balcans to the Caucasus and Turkey, 10 different stories of people that expose the foundations on which Europe is built.
In the evening if you decide the cinema in Gracia, very close to it you can try something different to eat like sushi in the KIBUKA bar or chilena-catalana food in the Hugo Bar both in Gracia.
After dinner and depending on your music style, if you like hard rock, there is a concert on Friday of a quite famous Spanish band, Barricada, in the Apolo or for Cuban music lovers, try also on Friday the Harlem Jazz Club where the Cuban group Echa Paká will perform.
And that’s all, I hope you enjoy, relax, eat and sleep well these days!!!!!
Nice Easter!!!!
