The five best places to visit Spain and see its carnivals

If you are thinking about travelling to the following Carnival holidays across our country, I'm sure you are thinking about visiting the famous Cadiz or the Canary Island Carnivals. But if you are looking for some strange ones you can find out, reading this article, that colourful and eyecatching carnivals as in the Canary Islands or Cadiz are celebrated in many other Spanish cities, in which, everyone can be what he/she has always wanted to be for a day. Cadiz We know that the most famous carnival on the mainland is the Cadiz one. That is not only known by Spanish people, but it's also known by thousand of foreigners, like the Germans and British. It's well well-

known for its “chirigotas”. If you can visit Cadiz during the carnival you should be patient because it will be packed. You should book your hotel in advance and forget about using your car, mostly in the downtown. Tenerife This carnival is one of the most internationally known . One of the reasons is that local people choose different topics every year. By the way, if you don't like noise, you shouldn't go to this carnival because it's one of the noisiest and therefore it's also one of the most annoying. Canarias This is one of the most remarkable carnivals in the world. During this carnival, the election of the Queen of the Carnival and the Drag Queen is celebrated. Its rides are very famous. You should eat and drink before to go to see the rides because of the crowd of people make many restaurants run out of food. Barcelona The Catalan carnival, besides colourful troupes like “Rio de Janeiro”, has several rituals that make it a very varied and entertaining carnival, as for example the launch of mobile phones and drag queen competitions. Murcia In Águilas there is a carnival which is famous for its parades and the packed night tents. During this Carnival we mustn't miss a famous parade called " la suelta de la musona ", who is a mythological character who crosses the streets during this Carnival. Don't be scared if, when you are seeing these parades, someone breaks an egg on your head, since it's about the traditional stuffed shell of confetti. In addition, during these celebrations you shouldn't miss the opportunity to taste a typical drink called "crow". This drink is made of wine and fruit but.... be careful! Since you might get drunk very quick.

“LA TORTUE-SANDWICH” “Comment une tortue a pu-t-elle atterrir au milieu de mon bureau? Et surtout, pourquoi est-ce

qu’elle a l’apparence d’un sandwich? Jeudi matin, plusieurs citoyens de notre tranquille ville ont trouvé cet animal près d’eux, dans

differents lieux, ils étaient vraiment perplexes. “J’avais ecouté quelque bruit auparavant, j’ai cependant decidé de poursuivre mon explication aux élèves quand, tout de suite, une fille a commence à crier et j’ai pu apprecier l’animal! J’ai d’abord cru que c’était une blague!” Raconte cette maîtresse de 30 ans. “Je ne pouvais pas croire ce que j’étais en train de voir, ça m’a laissé de glace! Une tortue remplie de la nourriture à côté de moi en traversant la rue!” glisse un autre témoin. “C’est inadmissible! Par conséquent, on va porter plainte contre le responsable! Bien que les pompiers

aient fait la sourde oreille, on va lui chercher! Je ne suis pas sûre qu’il soit aujourd’hui mais il va être arresté! Décrypte Charlotte Chaplin de l’organisation “Les animaux, nos amis”. Vendredi soir, après l’intervention de policiers et services de la mairie, on a pu finalement connaître que ces animaux étaient la publicité choisie par un nouveu restaurant “bio”. Une prochaîne ouverture polemique, sans doute. On a seulement l’espoir que son service soit plus rapide que ses mascottes.
