Hoy día: Gernika

In Spain, there are never classes on Fridays. With three day weekends what should one do? I think I'm gonna go to Guernica (Gernika in Euskeran). This is the heavily bombed village that Pablo Picasso made famous. Picasso, who initially was a conservative nationalist in support of Franco, witnessed the massacre of the Basque at Gernika, did a complete 180, and moved to France where he would live for the vast majority of his adult life. I'll take some photos, of course.
