April 23rd

There are a lot of celebrations today where we live.
It is our Region Day. Celebrations are mainly held in Villalar de los Comuneros, a village in Valladolid, where the rebels from our community were executed in 1521. A sad rebellion! Sad because it was fair and had no good end.
It is also Book Day. This particular year, because of family reasons, I have adopted a kind of combination of Book Day and San Jordi's Day in Catalonia. The tradition there is to give a rose and a book. Here's my breakfast table with roses and books for the ones at home.
In Barcelona there will be a different celebration, I hope.

wishing you a very good day

Maybe it's useful.
Bye.
