As I mentioned on my B-Day post, I was in Valencia on the 19th for my birthday. What a crazy day it was...
A shout out to Kailie...I'm stealing your "schedule of the day" format
6:15 AM: Walked to the bus station, because the buses don't run that early on Saturdays
7:15 AM: Begin the 5 hour ride to Valencia
7:19 AM: Watched Michael Ann attempt to tell the people on the bus it was my birthday so they'd sing
7:24 AM: The people on the bus sang "Happy Birthday" to me
12 Noon: Arrived in Valencia
1:14: Began our wait for the fireworks
2 PM: The mid day fireworks went off
2:06 PM: Stood in amazement for 5 seconds as to how awesome fireworks can be in the middle of the day. The sound was so loud it shook your bones and the ground. Along with hiding the 3 story float in the middle of the square.
2:07-6:15-Walked around Valencia
7:00 PM: Parade started
8:00 PM-12:59 AM: Waited for the finale to start
1:00-1:11 AM: Finale:
There were fireworks before this (twice as good as the ones in the day cause you could see them and feel them). Then they lit the fuse to the huge float (as seen 3 pictures above this) and fireworks were shooting out of it while burning. Sorry, I turned the camera to the side...Just pretend the side of your computer is the ground
1:12 AM: Walked back to the bus
This was what was left of another float that was 2 stories tall, burnt before the finale.
2:00 AM: Drive back to Alcala
6:17 AM: Get to Alcala and begin our walking cause the buses don't go that early on Sundays
7:00 AM: Arrive at home
It was a long day filled with fun, fireworks, firecrackers going off everywhere, standing around, turning 20, enjoying Las Fallas, and exhaustion.
I would go again in a heartbeat though!
