Had breakfast outdoors on the side of the 'Usine', with the group Indymedia Barcelona. Super nice, and we headed to Le jardin Anglais. Meeting point for the demonstration, at 10.00. The aim was to reach the boarder with france, and meet there the frensh group.

In the sense that people can organize and sell whatever they want in the street without the need for a permission. It is actually the day of the people.

The decision was to go to the Stadhuisplein, with the puppet theatre structure and a bunch of chairs.
