[Leica] Nathan's PAD 16/2/2019: swords to plowshares, kind of

[lluisripollphotography at gmail.com (Lluis Ripoll)]

A Boy climbing es mi favorita, me gusta mucho.

Cierto, Alicante junto a Barcelona y tambi?n M?laga sufrieron mucho los 
bombardeos fascistas. Cuando el bombardeo de Londres Churchill lleg? a decir 
en uno de sus discursos que esperaba que los inleses fueran tan valientes 
como lo fueron los barceloneses, aqu? se ensa?aron mucho, por ser Barcelona 
la segunda ciudad m?s importante de Espa?a, por su industria (destrozaron 
toda las edificaciones de la costa de Barcelona), por su industria y por ser 
Catalana? Tambi?n se pueden visitar algunos refugios, no he ido nunca, este 
tipo de cosas me resultan muy tristes.

Supongo que recuerdas la plaza de Sant Felip de Neri, d?nde la aviaci?n 
fascist? mat? a 45 ni?os de un colegio, la iglesia ha permanedido con las 
marcas que las bombas dejaron, hecho que durante el franquismo quer?an 
hacernos creer que eran las marcas de los fusilamientos hechos por los 
republicanos.

Un abrazo
Lluis
