On the 33rd anniversary of the murder of the #UCA #Jesuits of #ElSalvador & their mother & daughter companions, I treasure the unforgettable @RomeroTrust pilgrimage that took us there, & the people we met. #SanRomero, pray for us all. 1/
Our visit to #UCA in 2017 was only our 2nd & 3rd days in #SanSalvador, staying @ the beautifully located #CentroLoyola. We met wonderful people everywhere who welcomed us with open arms. They asked that we might share their story with others when we returned home. @RomeroTrust 2/
We were able 2 see the rose garden where 4 of the #Jesuits were shot dead. 2 more & the #Ramos mother & daughter were shot inside. Poignantly, the gardener #Obdullo was their husband & father. He found the bodies at dawn. The women had stayed over 2 be safer from govt violence 3/

Hay muchos tipos de #puentes: altos, bajos, largos, cortos, guapos, feos... pero un puente es un puente. Siempre lo mismo. Un puente une dos puntos de tierra separados por una masa de agua. Eso es así.

Pero, ¿y si no lo es?

Pensemos #OutOfTheBox. Démosle la vuelta al concepto. Imaginemos un #puente inverso, un puente que une a dos ríos... separados por otro río.

¿Cómo? ¿Acaso es eso posible?
Lo es.

Se llama 'Puente de Agua' y el más impresionante está en #Magdeburgo. El ser humano es la leche. Image
El canal #Havel (58 km) y el canal #Mittelland (325 km) son piezas clave de la #economía alemana. En 1919 comenzó a buscarse una idea que permitiera unirlos y sortear el río #Elba que está en medio. Tras 20 años de trabajos todo se paró por la #SegundaGuerraMundial. Image

#Elba Ooit was ik trots op mijn land. En hoorde ik er thuis. Wij waren een ander volk. We hadden voorbeelden. Herman Brood, Wolkers. We hadden Fortuyn, the Ex, Lademacher en Karel Appel. 1/
De motorbendes, de paradijsvogels van the last waterhole, de Angels punkers en skinheads en de rebellen van niveau; Oltmans. De Roy van Zuydewijn. Komrij de beide Reves, van Gogh en Cruijff natuurlijk.

Ons speldde je niets op de mouw. Wij fietsten gewoon door rood. 2/
We dronken Heineken achter het stuur en gaven onder hett oog van de hermandad een vette joint door. En we vochten zonder messen.

Fatsoen daar gaven we niks om en degenen die het opeisten lachten we recht in hun burgersmoel uit.

Cara @enpaonlus ti racconto una storia:
“Invidia” è il nome della gatta che 19 anni fa ho regalato ai miei genitori all’#isoladelba
Una vivace gattina nera super coccolona che da subito diventa parte della famiglia.
Il primo anno di vita lo passa pressoché sempre con me, dorme
in camera mia e mi segue come un cagnolino, le piace giocare con la piuma attaccata al filo e con tut ti i giochi che si fanno coi gatti.
Come tutti i gatti però è curiosa e vuole sempre uscire, glielo lasciamo fare, tanto abitiamo in fondo ad una strada chiusa e non trafficata

Insomma, capite che i miei vicini in un paradiso ed Invidia lo rende presto suo.
Bighellona giorno e
