Fire Spitting Catalan Dragon at Pride Barcelona 2009

Catalans love dragons - on the one hand, dragon killer Saint George ('Sant Jordi') is the patron saint of Catalonia, and on the other, all towns here simply have to have dragons figures ('dracs') which - during town festivals ('festa major') - come out and spit fire, just like the one which today had joined the LGBT Pride Barcelona 2009 Parade. (The language I try to speak is Catalan. It did not work at all, but still I want to upload the clip: Only in Catalonia will you find a dragon in a Pride Parade!)
