After Juergen of Random Good Stuff blog moved to Valencia, Spain, he started a new blog about the city.

This photo above is from the annual competition of lights, where the residents of a street named Calle Sueca apparently went over the top to create the best-est street lights evar!

    For Xmas 2007 several cities in France suppressed their holydays lights because of their impact on Global Warming.

    For Xmas 2008 I'm going to Valencia.

    Hi

    Fallas is a local day off, for Saitn Joseph , when people from valencia decorates theirs streets with lights and also the buid their Ninots, (cardboard pupets) to be burnt the Night of 19th of Mars.

    The best Ninot is saved from the flames and indulted, and endid in the museum.

    They also have incredible fireworks

    This tradition came from the carpenter making a burnfire with the little pieces fo wood, cleanig the workshop, and evolving to Ninots.
