Monasterio Nuestra Senora De Los Angeles (Monjas Dominicas), Sant Cugat, Spain.
Leaving Bredonborough c. 10.30 to Heathrow Terminal 2, arriving early for the 16.30 flight, which is fine with me.
Air Iberia to Barcelona. A mostly uneventful journey, other than no reading lights worked anywhere in the cabin; and the man on my right was an Occasional Booby, investigating various unnecessaries within his nose and on his hands, which then required flicking & dropping from his person.
Arriving 30 minutes late; waiting at the baggage carousel, a young man looking very much not-in-quite-a-normal-abnormal-condition, sat smoking a cigarette under the no smoking sign, emanating an atmosphere not congenial to the enhancement of my life-quality.
Collected & brought here by two Crafties, both well-informed on the relative placement of Sant Cugat & Barcelona airport, so a much quicker journey than last August.
Hernan has news of arising tour-planning for RF & The LCG in April & May.
A brief visit to the guitar meeting in the ballroom. Immediately: a different world to that of the everyday, available & open. The music being played was from the very early days of GC, and simple, and – remarkable. A different world. Gratitude.
Now moving into new quarters from those available on the last visit. The usual apartment is removed from the main body of the house, currently unheated & therefore very cold. I am grateful to be within the House action, with available warmth.
