Valor
















So there is this advertisment on a buliten boards accross Valencia about how they are the only ones with ebough valor (used like bravery) to burn an entire years worth of work. I look around at how poor so many of these people are and I see how the 2nd place Falla (that got burned) cost over 64,K Euros and ...well Valor isnt the word I would use for it.


Yes, Mom...they burn them.


First fireworks, then a long string of fire crackers that leads of the the gasoline dowsed falla and then as it began to catch on fire the clasical operaish sounding Fallas hymn plays very loudly like you are in some 1945 war movie.

Then is is burned to sticks! and Fallas is over.
