When in Spain

.... this little boy was having fun chasing his dad in the bullring. We tumbled upon the 'Patronage' festival in Cardona. Apparently it has been celebrated since 1674 and revolves around bulls ( blip is the only one we saw), dances (we saw a giant eagle dance as well a children doing a 'stick' dance), church services and solemn processions involving the Virgin Mary.

See extras for where we are staying, the eagle and a poster of the children dancing (I couldn't get close).
I do hope the link works for those of you interested.
