This particular feast day translates to a plethera of bondfires. I was surprised by the size of the crowd and the size of the fire. This was the Roman Catholic Church's fire. Last night was the Melkite (Eastern Catholic) Church's fire. And in two week's time will be the Greek Orthodox Church's fire. I wasn't expecting so many different denominations in a place where Muslims outnumber Christians by a ratio of 9:1, but it sure makes for some great fires.
