Night of San Lorenzo

Every summer on the night of San Lorenzo people (groups of friends but also families) gather on the beach around a bonfire and stay up all night for the star shower that happens yearly. It is very dear to me as a falling star appeared when I was by myself admiring the sky right after I said “So this is your beauty, God”. It really moved me and it was the first time I ever saw a falling star.
