Watery Wednesday
W…ell, another Wednesday, a Watery one as usual. Still ‘levitating’, I came towards the high rise Westin hotel. Quite a new place, it opened a year ago, or so. Last time I was there, Shakira was filming one of her clips there, you might have seen it (forgot the title, not being a fan of the lady’s music). Right there, on this very beach.
I posted another picture of the Barcelona seafront, all of it, here, if you are curious (and it’s healthy, being curious!).
Watery Wednesday of course!!!
Hi Rob and Mandy!
Looks like a gorgeous place to stay. I could use some beach time right now!

Dave, I actually saw the video being filmed, parts of it. Nice showcase for BCN.
Brattcat, it is a cable car induced levitating…
2sweetnsaxy, the hotel has a nickname, Barceloneses call it la vela, the sail.

What an interesting shape to that hotel and kind of fitting. Is it just me or does it not look like a whale's fin rising out of the water?

The blurry horizon is very special as well.

You may have missed the filming of Shakira on the beach. When I was a child, my mother took me to the beach to watch the filming of Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon in “Some Like It Hot.”
We have a W Hotel in Scottsdale only one mile from our house and we have never been there, as it is in somewhat of an out of the way location.

Sail seems to be a popular design now for buildings sitting on the beach !
