Fallas is not just one big pyro-happy pagan spring festival... in true Catholic form the locals manage to mix in a little religon. For two straight days (beginning at 4 pm each day and continuing until well after midnight) everyone (literally) dresses up in their traditional outifits and parades through the city grouped by neighborhood.
The end result is a huge flower statue of the Madona in the beautiful Plaza de la Virgen.


Bridget, me & Carolyn - and the flowers!For Isabella...maybe next year...?
