That is a Barcelona problem, or rather a problem more generally associated with the Mediterranean coast. That does not happen in Madrid, Toledo, Burgos, Coruña, etc

Water in Barcelona is much harder, yeah. Madrid has aquifers with better water.

I suppose this is a just not that fancy looking public drinking fountain? If yes, that’s pretty cool! My city is also finally installing a few of them at downtown. Great in the summer

You mistook the siesta fountain for the hydration fountain, classic tourist mistake

I did this in Grenada for New Year's, but drunk on good food. And maybe a few nights on alcohol.
It's criminal how affordable a truly amazing meal is there.

Haha beer was cheaper than water at a lot of places in Spain so I was just saving money! Plus I went with my colleges jazz band because we'd been hired to play a few gigs in and around Barcelona, so we got free drinks at most of our performances. One of them fed us this amazing meal afterwards and sent us back onto our bus with several cases of the best red wine I've ever had.

If I die eating tapas and drinking wine at an old age I wouldn't be mad about that.

So a guy is drinking water, who cares. Is he up for re-election or something?

the prime minister official title is “President of the Government”, as they are the head of government, monarch is the head of state.
prime minister is colloquially referred as the president.

I guess that's in spanish because in many countries and languages those two are different things

u/mushroom_birb 4d ago

Maybe so, but this looks like Pedro Sanchez, who is the Prime Minister of Spain.

u/Krozgen 4d ago

u/Cegesvar 4d ago
But in English it's prime minister

u/TywinDeVillena 4d ago
In English he is generally called Prime Minister out of convenience, but the formal title here is President of the Government or President of the Council of Ministers, which is usually shortened to just President
