Day of the Workers

Last night, we arrived home late from a music session to come upon the townspeople working through the night to produce these intricate May Day crosses which appear for this one day, unexpectedly, on street corners and in squares around the old town.

Those are lovely. What a nice beginning to May. I think people, myself included, have forgotten the meaning of May Day.

What is particularly lovely is the effort and time spent creating the crosses, so you tend to think about the meaning of May Day.
Thank you, Paulita!
