Festa time almost over

Procession with the statue of St Julian
The summer festa season in Malta is almost over. This last weekend has 4 towns celebrating the feast of the Nativity of Mary, and another one the feast of Our Lady of Grace. But I share with you a few photos of various church decorations and processions with the statues that are held in high regard in every locality. The outside decorations are becoming more elaborate, although because of recent threat of rain, some of them were not displayed this year, for fear that they would be damaged. However, you can nonetheless feast your eyes on some of these photos.
