Hello steemians, I want to share with you my wonderful day I spent. Emotions were on the top!!! I like events like this one.
So, what´s about?

In the little town named Čakovec, cca 100km far from Zagreb, the capital city of Croatia, is in process cultural – turistic manifestation named „Porcijunkulovo“. It is about selling homemade products by about 300 exhibitors.

The symbol of the manifestation are 3000 colorfull umbrellas which are exhibited through main street of the centar of town.

Nice pictures, and all with a Samsung Galaxy....WOW! In Zurich Switzerland we also have a little street where umbrellas are hanging. Wonder where this originates from. Thanks for sharing! Followed you :) We do travel vlogs on YouTube and would like to make some connections on Steemit! Please follow us back so we can be friends :) Looking forward for your posts

Thank you! I know there are streets with umbrellas in other countries, too. I don`t know where this idea origins from. I hope I will visit Switzerland someday. Tnx , I will follow you. :)

Yeeeey! Looking forward for more posts!

It will be still, of course. :)

Nice, I was there last year :)

I hope you had a good time there! :)

Nice photos, but I want to save the umbrellas. I mean I really just want to grab one or two, don't you? They are so scared way up there, all alone.

Yes, really, they're hanging there all alone like baby orphans, they need a good home and good rain
