Acoustic and luminous
Maybe it’s a good idea to change the subject. Too much Barcelona negativity. So how ’bout, instead, I share a sign I saw at Cagliari airport (Sardinia) over the baggage conveyor belt? Faithfully translated from the Italian, with the Italian:
ATTENZIONE AL SEGNALE ACUSTICO LUMINOSO DI PREAVOISO MOVIMENTO MASTRO.
PAY ATTENTION TO THE ACOUSTIC AND LUMINOUS SIGNAL FOREWARNING TAPE MOVEMENT.
Shame I didn’t have a camera handy when I saw it.

Reminds me of a sign written in English in an elevator in 1966 Tokyo. “Do not push buttons which are not good for you.”
We have tried to live by this philosophy ever since.

Ah Sardinia. There’s my favourite restaurant in Stockholm run by a family from there. Leopardi. Highly recommended. I’d love to go someday. I’ve heard it’s mostly mile long yachts on the northern coast.

I’m off to Stockholm shortly. Perhaps I can try the Leopardis’ Sardinia. But then… I do like meals at home. I’ll probably just cook. And once, for sure, a dinner of räkor.
