Autumn Delay

It was Wednesday and la festa de Mercè was celebrated through out all of Barcelona.

In 1687, Barcelona was riddled with locusts and where banished by the Virgin of Mercy.

The miracle has been celebrated ever since with songs, parades, musicians and activities for all ages, on September 24th.

But the miracle of all miracles was the sound of water.

Jardinets de Gràcia, 2008

Yes! The fountain at the Jardinets was turned on and so were ALL the fountains from there to plaça Catalunya.

What a treat!

Spring was finally here.

They've been quiet since last summer as the city has been experiencing a dry spell this year.
