FALLAS 2008

http://www.valencia-cityguide.com/tourist-information/leisure/festivals/the-fallas.html

I was going to write a bit about Fallas for those of you not familiar with it BUT of course there is a much easier way - look it up on the internet! Above is a great link that has the entire programme and info.

FALLAS - love it or hate it. I personally love it (but not the fireworks going off at 6 in the morning etc). This would have been my 4th one if I was going to be here. Besides the 3 weeks of BOOM, there is so much more to look at and get involved in.

Just ask those around you and they will tell you what to do and what to see. You won't get bored! If you live at the 3 torres, Torre 1 has the best view of the fireworks in the park.

Word of warning - Just watch your bags and wallets - unfortunately, it is the time for a far bit of theiving as the close contact is unavoidable!

Have Fun!
