My head is on friday night, our S. João Night. It all begins some days before with the creation of “cascatas” – displays of pottery popular figures, each in its own style, all over the streets – as well as with the street and public places decoration and the sell of the “alho porro” and the “manjerico” (typical plants), the herbs set and the lamb.By night, people fill the streets celebrating the summer solstice and the image of a saint, which was once a martyr and is now a reason for a popular celebration.
In the last days i didn't walk much to have photos from this events but from now on i will do that, since i don't have (yet) any picture about S.João festivities that i like so i posted this one from my favourites experiences, it has some Gimp work to make this downtown photo older. In this photo you can see this tower and was taked from here and gives a view of rua 31 de janeiro.
Next days this blog will have some music representative of this Festivities and photos of course, so enjoy it:)

The idea of starting PortoDailyPhoto was at the moment i look at
