Diada Castellera, a set on Flickr.
It has been an enjoyable 4 days so far in Spain. We have gone to the beach everyday for swimming and playing in the sand. It is currently the Les Santes Festival which lasts for 10 day. Today we got to see the Diada Castellera (human castle). There were several competing teams which all enter the town square with music and a moving group with 3 or 4 people high. Next each team competes to build the human castle with the little kids climbing to the top to stand. After siesta we will go to the children’s part of the festival, should be a bit of fun. Still getting our heads around siesta ... everyone disappears from the streets, the shops close and then life begins again at about 4.30pm-5pm. Totally different lifestyle here in Spain!
