Well, I'm not really from Barcelona (BCN)city, but I live 55km in the north of it.
I live in a small village of about 3000 inhavitans called Hostalets de Balenyà, placed + or - in the centre of the Catalonia region in Spain,in a area called Osona. Our area: Osona, is also called La Plana de Vic, becasuse of it's shape and its location.
I'ts a flat region surrounded by mountains exept for a small opening in the south part that opends its way to BCN.

The ethereal tree people
by kazander
After you have been in Barcelona awhile you aren't impressed by performances easily, as you see a street performance every place you go, especially la Rambla. But these tree people right outside the Cathedral were definately worth watching . The costumes and their movements to music were otherworldly!
If you are taking pictures of the street performers you should really give them a tip.
