A small rock in the Atlantic: Los Sauces Sardine Postponed

Los Sauces always hold their Sardine's Funeral a week or two after Santa Cruz. It was supposed to happen on Saturday, but we had an orange weather alert. The rain poured and the wind gusted, and it was obvious that nobody was going out if they could help it. In one way it's a good thing - the reservoirs were very low after such a dry winter.

It's finally stopped raining, so today I phoned a couple of bars in Los Sauces, and politely asked for news. Nope, it's not tonight. It should be on Friday 24th. That sounds good to me.

Meanwhile, you can see some video of last year's funeral here.
