Does Sant Jordi prefer the beach?

In La Vanguardia Readers' Photos we can see these photographs of a book and a rose, symbols of Sant Jordi's Day, from Gavà beach, in Baix Llobregat, and in L'Escala, in Alt Empordà, where tramuntana has been recorded today.

Not many days ago there was still talk of spring after an increase in temperatures and a summer atmosphere that was experienced in Catalonia and that filled the beaches as if we were in August and not April.

But, as the day of Sant Jordi's Day approached, the weather changed until the rains that occurred yesterday and that still keep all the book and rose professionals who have set up their booths in this area in suspense. such an important day.

The forecast indicates that the day began with clear or slightly cloudy skies and that only at the end of the morning isolated and weak showers could fall in the northeast of Catalonia, which at the end of the day could extend to the coast of Barcelona.

But it seems clear that Sant Jordi would like to have lived his day on the beach, without so many meteorological scares, although it is also true that we must not ignore that this latest rain is going very well in this context of drought.

In this last photograph you can see how Sant Jordi is not only a beach lover, but also a mountain lover. It is captured from Gavà with the Garraf massif as a witness.
