Well, not quite, really... Formerly known as the MS Columbus, it was built 15 years ago, but has just changed owner. Right now, it is coming from Nice in France and is on it's way to Malaga, Lisbon and Hamburg, where it will be officially christened 'MS Hamburg' on June 7th. It is a small ship,&nbsp; which allows it to go to smaller places than her giant cousin in the back of the photo the Norwegian Epic. I'd rather go with the smaller one...Or even better, steering my own sailing boat.<br /> &nbsp;On the menu today?

Not sure I'll be there to see it finished, as the dates quoted by different sources go from 2026 to... 2150. Don't want to live till 2150!!!<br /> Anyway, they finished the main nave 18 months ago, and I hadn't been back since. It is VERY impressive!

As one of the almost 24.000 Frenchies registered at the french consulate (very few bother, so it is hard to say how many french are living here. Lots), I did. There were 3 places where you could vote, depending of your postcode. I went here, the <a href="http://www.institutfrancais.es/barcelona/" target="_blank">Institut Francais de Barcelone</a>, representing proudly french culture.<br /> <br /> The results are out, we have a new president. Will it change anything? Let's just wait and see.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/83591584624370424-4366086073146256226?l=www.barcelonadailyphoto.com' alt='' /></div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/dAj-bZUip8LTVnRu6G40PURv8M0/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/dAj-bZUip8LTVnRu6G40PURv8M0/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/dAj-bZUip8LTVnRu6G40PURv8M0/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/dAj-bZUip8LTVnRu6G40PURv8M0/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/barcelonadailyphoto/Hynz/~4/6kZfxwioPx4" height="1" width="1"/>Rob and Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09106961534201033583noreply@blogger.com3Carrer de Moià, 08006 Barcelona, Spain41.3949836 2.151528741.393494600000004 2.1490612000000002 41.3964726 2.1539962http://www.barcelonadailyphoto.com/2012/05/to-be-french-in-barcelona-on-may-6th.html
