Back from another CoreGRID meeting in Barcelona

July 17th, 2005 • Filed under: Grid Computing
Just came back from Barcelona again, where the CoreGRID Work Package 4 and 5 meetings were held. I was only actively involved in WP4, which was kind of interesting and some possible collaboration partners were identified…
Other than that, this time I had some free time to see Barcelona, so I visited “La Sagrada Familia”, Gaudi’s famous church. Work on the church started at the end of the 19th century (around 1892) and is not expected to finish for another 30-40 years! The main tower is still missing (around 200 meters tall!) but the building is already extremely impressive!
I also visited Park Guell, where Gaudi’s museum is located alongside other pieces of his work (buildings, fountains etc etc etc).
And I did have a closer look at Camp Nou this time, although I arrived there out of the admission hours so I only saw it from outside -and payed a visit to their impressive boutique of course…
Many photos from Gaudi’s weird art, Camp Nou (and some boring ones from the meeting maybe) probably within the next couple of days…
