San Juan - Barcelona

So, San Juan is pretty much the biggest party of the year in Spain. The streets are filled with people, fireworks are set off, fire crackers are thrown and generally a fair amount of alcohol is consumed. We were in Barcelona for San Juan which was celebrated on the night of the 23rd, and during the day of the 24th.

The general idea is that the masses flock to the beach, set up camp, dance to a variety of music played out by dj's, party, socialise and have a good time.

M, Leah and I did just this, heading down to the beach by weaving through town, dodging children throwing fire crackers and following the crowds. Eventually we got to the beach which was covered with people, thousands in fact.

Not much else can be said about San Juan apart from, I hope I go again next year!
