The Basque Country is very cold, but Basque people have a warm heart."(in English): "I just wanted to send a message and a greeting to all of you in the Basque Land. I had a wonderful time there, in 1974 and 1975. Studying, meeting the people, climbing the mountains, Arantzazu. My baby was born there: Maite Nerea. She was born in 1975, in Mondragon.I have a special place in my heart for the Basque Land. I hope to visit it again soon. I was there about eleven years ago and it did change.When I was there in 1975, there was no Basque language allowed on signage or anything else. When I got there eleven years ago, everything was in Basque and it was such an amazing change. It felt like such as a hopeful thing for the people of Euskadi to have their language back. I was thrilled with the progress and thankful that it was peaceful there. I look forward to come back soon.There was a song that I learned while I was there, that expresses the way I feel about the Basque Land.Goiko mendian elurra dagoErrekaldian izotzaZu ganik aske nago taPozik daukat bihotzaGoiko mendian elurra dagoErrekaldian izotza"(translation of Basque song "Goiko mendian"):There is snow on the top of the mountainIce in the river,I am free from you,My heart is happy,When summer starts, in the son,When snow smelts,You too, will feelThe harvest of remorse*****Brought to you by EL ELECTRO DEL MYSPACE: http://www.myspace.com/perrasperrasAnd LA TAPADERA:C/Finlandia 18 Metro L1 & L5 Plaça de Sants, BARCELONAhttp://www.feafestival.net/latapadera...Tapa gratis con una consumición (minimo una caña o refresco):(Precio caña: 1,70€ durante todo el día) la tapa gratuita se sirve de 17:00h hasta las 21:00h cada día.Gran selección de tapas, Bocadillos Especiales.Sigue la Liga (Partidos de Barça y Real Madrid)Chupitos gratis si gana el Barça y si pierde el Madrid.
