Last Post from Spain :(
Well, we’re about 99% packed up with the exception of what we’re wearing right now. In about 6 hours we’ll be waking up and heading to the subway and then the commuter trains to the airport. We’ll see everyone shortly!! Don’t stop reading the blog, we still have lots of photos and stories to share [...]
What a day!
It looks like this is going to be another large entry. Steve seems to make me post all of the long entries, and then he gets to post smaller entries with photos. Ha! Today’s been… interesting. I’m going to tell you the end, and then we’re going to “Tarantino” it and see how we got [...]
Entries Out of Order
Not as in “not working”, but just not really being posted in the order that things have been happening. The first weekend we were here, we experienced La Mercè – the dragons, the correfocs, the fireworks (twice), the castellers, and ending with the pyromusical. We’ve only just started to finish posting the photos from those [...]
Since Everyone has been Asking…
Nichole is indeed here with me on the trip, but why would you believe me? Here’s photo proof: Taken on the beach just before the fireworks, and just before is started raining really hard: These two were taken at Montserrat (which we have yet to upload photos from): This one was taken by me at [...]
Steve’s Pictures of the Castellers
Nichole has uploaded her pictures, now it’s my turn. Here they are, I’m going to try and explain them so they are hopefully more than just pictures. These two are just showing the people climbing up, and how they get settled, also in the second photo, you can see the enxaneta (the little girl in [...]
Nichole’s Photos of Correfocs / Firerunners
Ok! For all you pyros out there… You should like this entry. These are just the photos – the videos are even better! Below you will see a photo of the street before that evening’s festivities – but if you look closely at the ground you can see the remnants of the previous night’s festivities [...]
Nichole’s Photos of Castellers
Ok. I only have a few photos of the castellers, so it didn’t require much motivation to resize them. Steve’s photos are better because he was able to zoom in more – and I spent most of my time recording the videos. Mostly for your viewing pleasure, but also so that I could see what [...]
Trying to Play Catch Up
I know we keep saying that we’re going to post pictures of things we have seen/done, but we keep doing new things and there are more new pictures that need sorting and stuff before we get a chance to post them. I’m going to attempt to cover some of the other stuff here (as much [...]
A Post from Steve
Ok, I have managed to yank the laptop out of Nichole’s hands while she is in the shower, and I hope to post up some of our pictures putting a visual to the novel that Nichole wrote a few days ago. (Andrew, this is Steve posting, ok?) I think I’m going to work backwords in [...]
