Yeah, Agustín does have a great old man’s face.

As for the ~~stoke jork~~ stork joke, it’s turtles all the way down.

Great photos - love the sunflowers and the wheat. And the shot of Agustin. That man has stories. It’s a beautiful part of Spain - what I remember most is the stork nests that were everywhere. We took that ’stork baby’ joke a bit too far when I was there.

Simon, I wouldn’t be surprised if the town’s residents had a statistically significant spike in birthdays around the second week of May. But that’s not the main intent of the festival, no.

Love the light in the wheatfield photos.
Also, when I first read that line about the festival doubling the town’s population, I got COMPLETELY the wrong idea about what kind of festival it was…

Cats do have green eyes but not that green.

I love this and the previous post. Very interesting stuff.
