The real heroes of this period there, will be given a gift of life.

Ah, Barcelona... So perfect.
I was on my bike last night downtown in this city of 2 1/2 million and got to an intersection. Looked both ways, could see maybe a few hundred yards in each direction, and--nothing. No cars, no bikes, no pedestrians. Just, silence, right downtown at, like, 10 o/clock. So weird. So weird.
