Saragossa Pilar Zaragoza 2009 Webcam

Watch now the Zaragoza Pilar Square Webcam

Today in my city, the offering of flowers is the main celebration of the Pilar festival. On October the 12th, the day of the Pilar, the great floral offering to the Virgin is one of the most significant events in the Spanish calendar. That same night the city celebrates the prayer of the Rosario de la Aurora. On the following day, the festivities begin with the Fruit offering. As night falls, the streetlamps are replaced by lanterns that illuminate the passing floats of The Crystal Rosary.

Para viajar a los Estados Unidos

Para viajar a los Estados Unidos se debe solicitar el nuevo formulario ESTA - Electronic System for Travel Authorization.

Es interesante conocer las nuevas reglas del Programa de Exención de Visado (VWP) para viajar a los Estados Unidos, siempre que se disponga de un pasaporte individual de lectura mecánica aceptado, ó biométrico electrónico con un chip integrado, y se haya obtenido una autorización de viaje a través del Sistema Electrónico de Autorización de Viaje (ESTA por sus siglas en ingles) antes de embarcar en una compañía aérea o marítima.
