Madeira Atlantic Festival 2013, June, day 22 - Portugal fireworks
Portugal flag and Madeira flag
Two flags in an official building. The green an red it's from Portugal, my country. And the other one, blue and yellow, it's from Madeira Autonomous Region, where I live. Normaly, they put the flags on weekends and public holidays. ~~~~ Duas bandeiras hasteadas no edifício oficial. A verde e vermelha é de Portugal, o meu país. E, a outra, azul e amarela, é da Região Autónoma da Madeira, onde resido. Normalmente, são hasteadas aos fins-de-semana e dias feriados ou festivos.
