Burying the B-year ...

---

It is not my intention to belittle 2010, but for me it was kind of the B-year ...
There was a lot of

• Babies (of friends)
  
  
• BALI! – summer 2010 😊
  
  
• Ballet - didn’t I go to the Swan Lake at the Luxor?
  
  
• Banks - weren’t they a lot in the news?
  
  
• Bed: I spent some days sick in bed 😞
  
  
• BILBAO - Autumn 2010
  
  
• Burka ban (proposals)
  
  
• BOLOGNA - New Year’s 2010/2011!
  
  
• Boysenberry – the exception that confirms the rule ...
  
  

What about Bali, Bilbao, and Bologna?
Find below a random bundle of highlights:

• @Bali
  
  - The Blanco museum, buildings for sacred doings (temples), beauty spas (massages), bars, burning (cremation), beaches, and bonanza.
  
  
• @Bilbao
  
  - Bay of Biscay, Brilliant architecture, Bravo Guggenheim!, Basque (and bask) food, white bridge (zubizuri), and shopping at Basandare.
  
  
• @Bologna
  
  - Basilica of San Petronio, Bella Piazza Maggiore, (grand) Ballo risorgimentale (by invitation only), Bolognese sauce, bloomy arcades (40 km of porticos!), basketball (the local obsession), and birefringence.
  
  

What will betide 2011?

No idea. Who knows a A-year?
Aruba, Australia ... uumm don’t think so, but does sound awesome!

BEST wishes for 2011!
