[ODFPlugtest] barcelona, alhambra escher

[Jos van den Oever]

Hi all,

Michiel, Bart and I are currently in Barcelona waiting for a bus to take us to 
Cologne and from there we'll take the train to the Netherlands and Belgium.

I'd like to share some association I had at the Alhambra tour. The waterstairs 
and near building of the Generalife reminded me of the work of M.C. Escher. 
Especially two of his etches:

In fact, Wikipedia confirms that the patterns of Alhambra inspired Escher:

Cheers,
Jos
