What a weekend.
Finally, the sun returned after a gray and rainy week. After an intensive day
in the mountains, it was time for the Holi Festival in Barcelona on Sunday. Ingredients: sun,
music, a very relaxed atmosphere, smearing colors on stranger’s faces… what’s
not to like?
It was quite a
spectacle, especially for a festival with free entrance. For most of the time,
it was just a bunch of rainbow colored people sitting around, enjoying the sun.
But the moment we all gathered and threw our colored powders in the air was
magical!
It was hard to
get a good image of this moment. In fact, my camera pretty much died during
this colorful but dusty explosion. But it was worth it (and hey, my camera has already
celebrated its fifth birthday. It had a good life). And the way back was just
hilarious. Sitting in the metro, on the left a guy in a spotless white shirt
that I tried to avoid touching, on the right a kid screaming at me “Eres un zombie!” It
was a good day.
