When I look it up on line there are at least three different stories accounting for the holes. If this can happen in just 70 modern years no wonder we get confused about things that happend even longer ago.<br />This issue aside, we loved Barcelona, and there is so much more to see.Lynn and Nick Boothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10395070657948107200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1458478041180411810.post-54369944100833763332009-10-19T05:19:04.589-07:002009-10-19T05:19:04.589-07:00Great blog about your visit to my city, glad to he...Great blog about your visit to my city, glad to hear you enjoyed it!<br />Just a small correction: the holes in the church wall of Sant Fleip Neri are not 'bullet holes' (as even many locals believe), there were no executions on this place during the civil war.
