Here we were just finishing eating lunch at La Papala on Calle Neuvo and we look up and here are these egrets just a dancing and fluffing up. Probably mating season. Unbelievable to watch. Traffic flowing down the street, people walking by and these lovely birds never paid a bit of [...]

The Procession, originalmente cargada por dar_morrow.
Palm Sunday. You’ll notice everyone is carrying a palm branch to cool “Jesus” off as he goes down the street.

A triple set of windows in the becroom. The two at the ends open and on the opposite wall there are a couple more windows to get a cross breeze going.
