Gryffindor. INFP. I love rainy days and too many shows for my own good. Multifandom blog. I love spoilers, so... NOT a spoiler-free blog. I will tag them, though. Welcome!!!!
The Eagle of Tarragona dancing during the city’s festa major (local festivities) of Santa Tecla.
Majestic animals such as eagles and dragons are present in traditional Catalan festivities, especially in Catalunya Nova (Southern and Western half of Catalonia). Same way as the giants, these figures are hollow so people can get under them and make them dance.
Tarragona’s Eagle is documented since at least the year 1531, when it’s written that she participated in the Santa Tecla and Corpus festivities, just like nowadays.
#he’s trying to make sense of everything that just happened #and she’s just like #SHUT UP AND COME HERE AND LET ME GIVE YOU KISSES #LET ME HOLD YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACE AND KISS YOU ONE HUNDRED MILLION TIMES #I have never loved a scene more than this one
Did you see the Mike Hatsune trend on twitter? So many Catalan Mikus!!!
I hadn't seen it! They're so cool!!
(And by the way, Miku is already Catalan 😉 the software used for her voice —Vocaloid— was created by the Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona)
