I begin this blog Eurodipity, from Alicante (Spain). This week, until the 24 of June, the celebrations of the city are celebrated: "The bonfires of San Juan". Like in Valencia, Alicante it constructs monuments (ninots) of different materials, that they will be burned in the magical night of San Juan. Like in almost all Spain, when they are the celebrations of the town, everybody usually sleep behind schedule, eat and drinks so much. The city is a little chaotic, are thousand cut streets, cannot be circulated, but in counterpart, the streets are adorned with garlands of lights, in everywhere are so much colorful. And " planta" (the construction of art works), it throughout congregates to the people of the districts the day. Alicante lives these days, besides wonderful days of sun to enjoy its beaches, the best nights with the Fogueres de Sant Joan (valencià language).

We live our eurodipity trip now in Calpe. What a beautiful beach!!
And in this city they are in "Fiestas"!!: The Feria de Julio, as all, music, color and eat and drink so much ;-).
Now (14 hours) we are going to a tasting of "rebujito" (a typical drink, of course), and it will follow with a food of fair to popular prices.
