ahp iatly (Tar Urrl Writer Samples Spanish Life Kit Foss Staff Writer At the beginning of the summer, my principle goal in coming to Spain was to experience the Spanish culture to the utmost of my ability. Three weeks later, this is still a realistic objective. But today I strayed from my chosen path: I went to McDonald’s for the cheapest and most delicious soft-serve ice cream in Sevilla. (The “cono de hela do” is available in chocolate and vanil la and sells for fifty pesetas, which is roughly thirty cents.) I tried to reassure myself that it was n’t that bad to go to McDonald’s if only for ice cream, but the fact remains that I m an American tourist whose experi ences here are reviving memories of home. Because of its great height, the view from the Alhambra in Granada brings to mind the sweeping Northern view of UNC’s campus from the eighth floor of Davis Library.

During my tour of the Alhambra, I was reminded of Chapel Hill’s claim to the author Thomas Wolfe, who used his life experiences to write “Look Homeward Angel,” among other works, when I learned that Washington Irving lived in the Alhambra and incorporated its legends with his travel experiences in “Tales of the Alhambra”. In between lunch at 3:00 p.m. and dinner at 10:00 p.m., what wouldn’t I give for an ice-cold sweet tea, a baked potato and a salad drizzled with Ranch dressing. Despite my cravings, the food in Spain is wonderful: my host mother pre pares a different dish for every meal, and fresh bread is always a constant fac tor. Gazpacho, a cold soup composed of tomatoes, carrots, garlic, and olive oil, is a favorite with my family. I’ve also enjoyed eggplant, lentils, and various other legumes for the first time. ident 4 Inquire 5 Arrival 6 Shag or bob, eg. 7 The King 8 POW possibly 9 Long, thin pieces 10 Long, thin ridge 11 Deliver a dia tribe 12 _ fixe (obses sion) 13 Darned 21 Eucharist plate 22 Inoperative 24 Enter the net? 25 Singer Perry 28 Fit to be eaten 29 At a distance 30 Staffs 31 Footnote abbr. 32 Inconsequential 33 UFO crew 34 Medicinal bush 36 Board 37 Cleftones' hit, "Heart and 38 Lift 43 Sure winner 44 Massachusetts, once 2 3 6 7 10 11 12 13 IgP ~~t wgjjk “ HH 4 mm ■*■■■ Hi 26™ "“'“■■27” '””“■■2B 29 30 31 32 Hnf ~ He , HP 39 42 ■■44 45 ■■■■■ 147I 47 ' 48 49 50 5? ■■s3 ■■s4 ""■■s6 ~||||j -4 t- -- " + " ~ Spring/Summei-Specials tusHnslsf and Brakes 407 E.

The citrus orchards in Valencia, on the eastern coast of Spain, produce the best oranges I’ve ever eaten, and the “cafe con leche" is bar none. What I love most about Spain is the way everyone takes the greatest pleasure in the smallest things. A long talk with loved ones during a stroll in the street is the recipe for contented relaxation for my host family. And do the Spaniards ever know how to party: a typical evening begins with a late dinner followed by going to a bar or a discoteca, sometimes until 6:00 a.m. Spanish culture for an American in Sevilla may be inhibited slighdy by the presence of McDonald’s and its fifty peseta helados, but this tourist has every intention of living the ideal Spanish lifestyle before her return to Chapel Hill.

Feast for Eyes, Ears With 'Fantasia' Ariadne Guthrie Staff Writer When Walt Disney introduced the concept of "Fantasia" over sixty years ago, his hope was to translate music into pictures, to allow the eyes to work in concert with the ears. The marriage of sight and sound in ||| MOVIE REVIEW "Fantasia „ r . „„„„„ 2000" is a Fantasia 2000 beautiful, if g* g* somewhat bor- WWW ing, tribute to its creator’s dream. Like the previous "Fantasia," Fantasia 2000 is an eclectic mix of both music and imagery. The music ranges from the booming sounds of Beethoven’s "Symphony #5" to George Gershwin’s jazzy "Rhapsody in Blue." Eye candy includes abstract shapes, which appear to be butterflies, flying whales, carica ture-style New Yorkers and, of course, Mickey Mouse. The two elements are perfectly 171 E.

Instead of a graduation ceremony, the music provides a back drop for the procession of animals into Noah’s Ark, led by Donald Duck. The story, like the music, could lull children to sleep. Animation takes a magnificent leap in an interpretation of "Pines of Rome.” Sweeping crescendos are seen as giant Arctic whales flying across gleam ing oceans and into space. Story-telling has always been one of Disney’s strengths, and "Fantasia 2000" is no exception. Several sequences could easily stand on their own. An adaptation of Hans Christen Andersen’s "Steadfast Tin Soldier" tells a charming story, and the mythical portrayal of nature and destruction in "The Firebird Suite, 1919 Version" is reminiscent of "Ferngully: The Last Rainforest." The new production replaces its pre decessor’s narrator with Hollywood heavyweights like Steve Martin, Quincy Jones andjames Earl Jones. Thursday, June 22, 2000 Although the star-power is impres sive, the introductions are brief and uninteresting, With the possible exception of a humorous bit by comedians/magicians Penn and Teller, these interruptions should have been edited out. The only real disappointment in the film was the animation. It’s hard to see Disney produce something as visually stunning as Dinosaur, and then revert back to it’s traditional animation tech niques. With the exception of some impressive backgrounds, suchUT the rendering of Mt. Sl Helens in the finale, Disney doesn’t seem to make much use of new computer animation technology. Despite some beliefs that "Fantasia" was merely created to spoon-feed classi cal music to reluctant listeners, "Fantasia 2000" will delight all audiences, regard less of musical preference. With any luck, we won’t have to wait another sixty years for the next installment.
