Las Fallas

Leading up to heading away I thought I would share some of the things that I am most looking forward to on the trip, of course it all will be amazing, but there a few experiences that even the thought of steals my breath, I wanted to share one of these, The Las Fallas Festival, in Valencia.

Las Fallas is said to be something you have to see to believe, also referred to as the "festival of fire" as well as burning up to 700 large wooden structures ceremoniously, they also party it up for 5 days leading up to this with fireworks, music, and loud colourful parades.

Preparing for our trip this was one of the first places we booked accommodation for. We actually opted to stay a little out of the city so we could hit the beach if we wanted (weather permitting), so that we could venture between the crazy party atmosphere and the coast of Spain, oh what a hard life....
