Madrid

Next weekend(from 1st to 3rd of May) I'm going with four friends to Madrid. We have a plan to see as much as possible- the city centre(Plaza de Mayor, Gran Via), some famous museums, football stadium of Real. We also want to visit Toledo, if we have enough time. I'm going to write how it was after the trip.  

Fiesta in Alcoy/Alcoi

Being a member of orienteering club, I had a change to participate in UPV-O training camp in Alcoi. It started on Friday evening and ended on Sunday, but unfortunately I participated only on Friday and Saturday.

Alcoy (in Spain) or Alcoi (in Valencian) is a city and municipality located in the province of ALicante, Spain.

This week (on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th of April) was there the Valencian Community’s most impressive Christians & Moors Festival.

I had change to participate on Friday evening fiesta and you can see some pictures on the fallowing sideshow and I generated a video from those pictures.

My trip to Andalusia

I had a great pleasure to take part in trip to Andalusia. We'd travelled from 9.04 to 17.04, visiting Alicante, Cartagena, Granada, Malaga, Gibraltar, Cadiz, Sevilla and Cordoba. We travelled in two cars, eight people. To be continue..

Easter in Spain

The Easter Week, known in Spain as Semana Santa is the most important celebration in the country. The festivities begin with the Domingo de Ramos (Palm Sunday) and end with Lunes de Pascua (Easter Monday). It is a celebration of life itself and the whole country comes alive. The Catholic Church in Spain is passionate about Easter celebrations.

From Maundy Thursday to Easter, every day there are processions with people costumed. They are carrying crosses and holy statues. It looks really interesting, especially during the night- there are a lot of people on the streets who are watching this impressive parade. 

Crazy week in Valencia

Yeah, it was one really crazy week! Two of my friend from Estonia where visiting me here in Valencia between 30th of March to 6th of April.

I made a short video (using animoto.com) from photos we made during this week.

Enjoy!
