Festivity of Sant Jordi




Sant Jordi = St.George

His death, back in 303 is commemorated today, April 23rd.

(yes, he's the one with the Dragon!)

In Catalunya it is customary to give women a red rose.

In #Barcelona, right now, the sky is blue, the breeze is fresh...

...and the red roses seem to be everywhere.

People look happy, walking around, smiling.

It's always nice to give flowers, isn't it?



Since 1995, Unesco also declared April 23rd "World Book Day".

(sooo, flowers & books, pretty nice, right?)
