So we've been hearing about the Fiestas of Gracia for a long time, and now they are just around the corner. Today we were walking around and noticed several streets closed off. Tables were set up and groups of people were busily working on decorations. Each street association decides on a theme and decorates the streets and compete for the best. Close to our building we saw creations of totem poles. Turns out the theme was Route 66! We're still deciding whether we will stick around. It seems that lots of locals actually leave as the streets are filled with non-stop partying. Can't wait to see the streets decorated.
