Per problemes tècnics, els alumnis aquest mes hem retardat la trobada.
Detrás del mercado de la Boqueria hay un restaurante de nombre Ra con una
terracita fantástica para el verano. Os propongo aprovechar que todavía
hace buen tiempo y hacer una cenita temprana (9 o'clock) para después,
quién se anime y si está abierto, terminar con una copichuela/mojito en el
Rita Blue, que está unos metros más abajo, en la plaça de St. Agustí, que
es la mar de chula :-)
Bar & Terraza Ra
Plaça de la Gardunya 3
Tienen una web en http://www.ratown.com con mucha información, fotos y
detallitos :-)

¿Quién se apunta? ¡Se abre el periodo de reservas! (que cerraremos el
domingo a medianoche :-)

Where? Gràcia (bcn) -
When? August 21st, around 22h
Who? BEST Alumni in Barcelona + any BESTie who is around and wants to join us!
If you want to join us, please contact us via barcelona-alumni@BEST
If you have never been to a correfoc yet, you cannot miss it - it's something really crazy and nice :)
---------------/ ------------------------------
Aprofitant que el 21 és el dia de cloenda de les festes de Gràcia, els alumnis hi anem a viure la festa una mica (malgrat que sóm conscients de que divendres estaràn els pobres decorats més trillats...)
El correfoc, i el castell de focs al final del mateix són la traca final (amb permís dels castells que faran dissabte es clar), i no ens ho volem perdre.
El correfoc surt de la plaça Trilla, passa per les places del Nord, Diamant, Sol i acaba a la Plaça de la Vila. Per tal de trobar menys gent, la idea és quedar entra la plaça del Nord i la del diamant, ja que més avall estarà "abarrotao" .
Qui s'apunti que avisi i ja acabarem de concretar!!
Després, fiestuki amb alguna orquestrilla ...i algún mojito caurà!!
Hi everyone!
If any BESTie comes to Barcelona this week, don't miss the Festes de Gràcia!
According to Lonely Planet "Of all Barcelona’s summer barri street parties, Gràcia’s is the biggest, noisiest and longest (taking place over about nine days). More than a dozen streets in Gràcia are decorated by their inhabitants as part of a competition for the most imaginative street. People pour in to listen to bands in the streets and squares, fuel on snacks and drink at countless street stands."
Really, even we barcelonins love it! It's not just for tourists as many other things that you will find here in summer...
And of course...if you are here, let us know!
It's holiday season - well, we know that for BEST alumni as for BESTies any month is good for travelling - but ok, most people do that in summer!!
Via some alumni of BEST, we discovered tripit
It's a really cool application that allows you to keep the info of all your bookings together - plus it tells you which of your friends is/will be around you during your trips - or who will be visiting you.
It can be integrated in Linkedin, so you can easily track many of your contacts - you'll be surprised to discovered how many of your friends are already using it.
To register a trip, you just forward your confirmation email of the flight, hotel, car, ... - booking, and it puts all the information nicely. It even sends you a reminder few days before so you don't forget to prepare your suitcase!!
Wanna join us on tripit?
On july 24th, some of the Alumni in Barcelona attended the Pecha-Kucha event vol 6. in Barcelona.
We enjoyed it a lot - if you still don't know, a friend of ours made a nice report about it in this post in his webpage, which we also recomend if you're interested in renewable energies, sustainability, ecodesign...
Next edition will probably take place in november!! Will you join us??
Hola!
Para este 21 propongo un restaurante que se llama Movie Restaurant (http://www.movierestaurant.com/).
Es un restaurante temático, ambientado con cosas de películas y música. El menú de grupos que sugiero cuesta 18 € y os lo pongo adjunto para que lo veais.
Los datos de la convocatoria son:
* Lugar: Movie restaurant. Roger de Llúria 50, Barcelona
* Día y hora: Martes 21/7/09 a las 21:00
These days, the neighbourhoods in Barcelona (as all the towns in Spain) are celebrating their "Festes Majors".
I would like to recommend you the one in Poble Sec. This neighbourhood is a bit hidden, up-hill in Montjuïc mountain, but it's a real MUST is you want to see something else outside the touristic tour.
Between July 18th and 26th, there will be concerts, activities for the children, sport competitions, exhibitions...and even a special beer for "les festes".
If you come to Barcelona, let us know!
Dear visitor -
We're going for a hike in the surroundings of Barcelona - if you'll be in the city and feel like joining, don't hesitate and drop us an email! :)
More detailed info below in spanish (if you are thinking of showing up, contact Anna for more info)
---------------------------
El próximo 21 es domingo, y como no, toca actividad alumnil!!
Mi idea es hacer una pequeña excursion + picnic cerca de barcelona.
No sé si os gusta / apetece el tema, así que de momento yo lo propongo y según la respuesta q deis hacemos esto o otra cosa...
La excursión en la que habia pensado es ir a Sant Cugat desde el "Parc del Laberint"
Es una salida facil, de 2h30 (o un poco más) , se acaba en Sant Cugat desde donde se puede volver en ferrocarril - o a pie!
La idea seria ir no demasiado tarde porque sino hace calor, y comer algo por Sant Medir o en Sant Cugat si preferís. Podríamos llevar algo tipo picnic y ya está.
Os dejo aquí debajo la ficha técnica, para que veais que no miento y que es una salida facil :)
Ja direu!

In the heart of Gracia there is one of those little jewels that one might miss if not told about: the Miriot restaurant.
And there is where we are going next week for our monthly BEST BCN Alumni Meeting!
Located close to Rius i Taulet square, this recently renovated Brazilian restaurant combines Brazilian and Mediterranean cuisine.
Miria Santos the Chef and owner, studied at the Hofmann school (http://www.hofmann-bcn.com/), so you will not be disappointed, generous portions of creative dishes at very reasonable prices.We have "negotiated" a menu for 20 EUR/person including three courses, water and wine (Dani don't worry, the dessert will be something with chocolate).
If you have any food allergies (or are vegetarian) just drop us an email and we will arrange something special for you!!
We really really want to see many people coming to next week's dinner, specially all of you that have missed other monthly dinners...don't think it twice (and call all your fellow Alumnis too!).
Practicalities :
date: Thursday May 21st 21:30 (sharp)

Maybe you have noticed---we included a calendar in the blog!
We intend to add in this calendar not only the 21st activities planning, but also other visits/activities proposed by any alumni in the city.
In this way we can easily share what is going on in the city - and improve the activities we do in our free time :)

Ei, we've changed the blog template again :)
