Viva Barcelona!!!

The last time I was in Spain was back in 1999 and was mostly in Andalucia. There was an opportunity for me to go back to Spain and I'm so glad that it happened during the week of Fiesta La Merce. (Bear with me as I create this page, I do have tons of pictures taken during the fiesta).

Castellers de Barcelona

Awesome!!! This guys take it seriously. I was in the base of the Red Team (the local favored team) when they were forming up but it took them 5 tries to form the castle.
The first try collapse because one of the girls had her pants coming off (notice the girl in the middle?)

Los Gigantes de Barcelona

"Dragons, giants, demons, dance....Barcelona celebrates its past with a series of traditional figures and events that in many cases go back to the Middle Ages."
