Hi mom!!
Today we went out for a walk and we went to the shopping center “La Maquinista”. “La Maquinista” is situated where the metallurgic fabric “La Maquinista Terrestre i Marítima” was in the past. Here you can see us taking a rest in front of the little park of “La Maquinista”.
This is the large pond, situated in the middle of the park, named Narcís Monturiol (a Catalonian engineer, who invented the first crew submarine). It was built in order to take advantage of the two nearby water sources and it’s used to irrigate the park. Inside the pond you can see the large antique wheel that reminds us of the industrial past of the land. And the building near the pond is “Museo de La Maquinista y Macosa”, a museum which contains historical documents, plans, photographs, models and historical objects from the old factory.
The shopping center!!!!
After visit some shops, we take a rest in a lounge terrace.
Can you see the big clock on the floor??? There was a projector which projected the small hands of the clock to show the hour, but it’s out of order
In the first floor there are the restaurants, near another lounge terrace.
It seems like a jungle!!!
Before come back home, we met Tom and Jerry, who drove us in their sidecar
We had a fun afternoon!
