St. Jordi Meditation
From the blood flowing of the dragon a red rose was born.
In Catalonia we celebrate April 23rd "La Diada de Sant Jordi" - Saint George's Day - by giving away roses and books (honoring also the day Cervantes and Shakespeare died) to our dear ones.
Streets burst with life, full of rose stalls, book sellers and "senyeres", flooded of people who wander, looking for gifts.
Here, in Barcelona, the most visited street is Les Rambles, each of its 1200 meters providing the goods for this celebration.
Not the best day to stay outside if you feel overwhelmed by crowds.
A simpler version of this game was presented for Meditations and you can play it there every April 23rd.
