Barcelona and other delightful NCC things!

I just got back from Barcelona -- what a vacation! I did go there to work, but I was able to stay the weekend and see friends, get burned by the surprisingly strong Sun, skate along the beach -- and swim in the sea!

Oh, it was wonderful: cold water that chilled but invigorated me, the waves that made me feel lighter then I am, sparking light on the send glued to my skin... and all the other nude hippies on the Mar Bella beach :)

On Friday, 2nd April me and Angel went to the concert of New Cool Collective (NCC!) in Paradiso.
They are a true "big band" -- there were at least 20 people on the stage at any time! Most of them blowing: trumpets, saxophones, trombones... And wild percussions! It was wonderful! I danced myself crazy!

On 1st of April we went to the Book Chicago improvisation comedy show: Upgrade or Die!, about communication technology. Very appropriate for the (RIPE) NCC company outing ;-)
