117 girls gather for a last run-through as Santa Barbara gets in Fiesta spirit

Fiesta Flower Girls converged on the Santa Barbara County Courthouse Sunken Garden on Saturday morning in one of the first events of the 2012 Santa Barbara Old Spanish Days Fiesta.

This year, 117 girls are participating as Flower Girls, which represent Fiesta at the opening night ceremony Wednesday at the Santa Barbara Mission, as well as Friday’s El Desfile Histórico (Historical Parade) and Saturday’s 82nd Annual El Desfile De Los Niños (Children’s Parade).
