The Eurovision Song Contest in Portugal - 12 May 2018

Image
The Eurovision Song Contest in Portugal was a very lively event. From the Terreiro do Paço to the Parque das Nações, there was a lively excitement that made it possible to feel the music and see the day with new eyes. The poetry of the good disposition, of the endless waits in the queues, of the musical tourism, of the multiple flags. It was worth knowing the Eurovision radio ... http://www.escradio.com     It was worth seeing friends from Australia. There is poetry even in kangaroos.     And although the winning song is not the one that, in poetic terms or the transmitted message, is the favorite of this blog, it has a happy rhythm that is worth knowing. Congratulations to Israel!
