Nichole’s Photos of Castellers

By Nichole & Steve | Published September 30, 2006

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 was going on because I couldn’t see over most of the crowd ;)

Here’s the square – one side has the Catalan government building shown below, the other side has the city hall. Also, note the giants being paraded around, and a shot of a kid having a cape tied around his neck. hehehhe

hehehehe… Couldn’t resist…

The stage where some performers would play during that weekend’s festivities, two of the castellers “teams” (?) and the Catalan flag.

    Nice hat.
    :-)
    It’s good to see that spain hasn’t become Yankees territory yet. I guess technically it is closer to Boston than NY, so it makes sense. :-)

    Actually, I did see a Yankees hat in that crowd too, I just didn’t take a photo because after seeing the hat I was wearing (Steve’s Boston hat) he didn’t look too pleased/friendly. hahaha
