Coisas que não mudam #380
O Santo António tem sempre o menino ao colo,
seja na Igreja de São Nicolau em Bilbao,
na Igreja de São Nicolau na Baixa
na Igreja da Conceição Velha na Rua da Alfândega,
ou na Igreja da Encarnação ao Chiado.

Some glory in their birth, some in their skill,
Some in their wealth, some in their bodies' force,
Some in their garments, though new-fangled ill,
Some in their hawks and hounds, some in their horse;
And every humour hath his adjunct pleasure,
Wherein it finds a joy above the rest:
But these particulars are not my measure;
All these I better in one general best.
Thy love is better than high birth to me,
Richer than wealth, prouder than garments' cost,
Of more delight than hawks or horses be;
And having thee, of all men's pride I boast:
Wretched in this alone, that thou mayst take
All this away and me most wretched make.
William Shakespeare, Sonnet XCI

Pedaços de Bilbao
Recentemente em Bilbao, que tem:
uma bela combinação de arquitectura tradicional e moderna,
como é o caso do Museu Guggenheim,
da medieval catedral de Santiago,
ou da igreja de Santo António abade
junto à famosa ponte com o mesmo nome.
No Caminho (francês) de Santiago, Bilbao não tem pai natal
mas sim o Olenzero que se vê um pouco por todo o lado
e a quem as crianças Bascas pedem presentes.
Bilbao é ainda uma cidade muito organizada
com edifícios bem conservados
o belo teatro da ópera (Teatro Arriaga)
um sistema de transportes com nome engraçado,
tanto pintxos como pastelaria deliciosa,
e um rio com uma impressionante amplitude de maré!

Parece que estou a ouvir #220
Don't let the sun go down on me
Music & lyrics by Elton John & Bernie Taupin*
I can't light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life
Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I searched myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
I can't find the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have they need love to help them heal
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I searched myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me
Music & lyrics by Elton John & Bernie Taupin*

Coisas que não mudam #378
Presépios no Natal. Ficam imagens dos que achei mais interessantes por serem diferentes do tradicional:
o da Conceição velha em Lisboa,
o da Igreja de São Nicolau em Lisboa,
e vários presépios invulgares expostos no claustro da sé de Bilbao
com o Menino ao colo de São José,
com o Menino dormindo em posição insólita na manjedoura
uma Sagrada Família em que o Menino toma banho,
e outra em que Nossa Senhora fia
