Day of the Crosses

Every May 3 is a huge holiday in Granada. Day of the Crosses.  One thing that people in Andalucia (the region of Spain where we live) love to do is "Fiesta."  On the Day of the Crosses various organizations put up crosses made of flowers in the main squares of the city.  Everyone goes out to sing, dance, spend time with friends, and see the beautiful crosses.  All the kids dress in traditional Spanish and Gypsy clothing.  There are horses in the street and carriage rides as well.  Throughout the city you can hear people singing and having a good time.
