Halloween in the middle of summer!

On August 15, 2010, Barcelona's barrio of Gràcia will celebrate la Festa Major de Gràcia 2010.

I've missed the last several years of the festa and for nostalgia sake I post this video of the 2006 winner carre de Torder, MY ALL TIME FAVORITE STREET.

I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!

Now, what is la festa de Gràcia you might be asking yourself?

Well, it's little streets within Gràcia that are outrageously decorated and prizes for the best decorated are awarded.

Themes run from pre-historic times to aliens and star-trek like creatures to quiet corners like reading for the kiddies.

It's Halloween except right in the middle of summer.

Children end up having a great time and grown-ups a better time.

If you click on CLICK, I found an itinerary of the weeks events displayed.

If you like what you saw, just search la festa on my blog to see more.

And!

If you're in Barcelona that week, go, go GOOOOO!!!!
