Fiesta!
During the opening of the Timog Avenue branch of Buddy's restaurant (see yesterday's post), the owners recreated some parts of the Pahiyas Festival. It was a fun treat seeing higantes (giants)…

Those are some giants! That's a restaurant that knows how to have a grand opening.
This looks like fun!
nice that they include higantes to symbolize fiesta.
In a couple of days will start here las fiestas de la Merce, in honour of Nuestra Senora de la Merce, holy patron of Barcelona. We will see many of those gigantes, gegants in Catalan, parading the streets. And a few fire-spewing dragons as well. Plus about 300 free concerts, fireworks, exhibitions, and so on. Can't wait!
Great shots Hilda, so colourful, looks like fun.
This is nice and fun too, thanks :)
Love the higantes and the band! I believe that some Pisans have infiltrated your last picture...
Very interesting post. It's fun.
greetings.
These are neat. Giants. Yes, they are even mentioned in the Bible. They were the offspring of heavenly beings and human beings. Og was one and his coffin was enormous.
This is nice and fun
Very fancy giants, though! I'm surprised they didn't just start dancing to the music :D
hehe, the one on the left reminded me of speedy gonzales for some reason. ^0^ and they're tall alright!
the resto looks enticing, i'll try it sometime.
they opened the branch with a bang. would have loved to be there on opening day.
