Calella de Palafrugell, Spain
 Calella coast at Costa Brava
I have no idea what this street festival is called, it happened in July sometime, but I can say that these events happen all summer long in the streets of Calella, and many Spanish cities. You can't necessary expect them or plan for them, which adds to the fun of the surprise when one pops up on you.

At this particular event drum circles came barreling down the promenade with people pushing these unusual parade-float like costumes of chickens and dragons. Once we reached the end of the promenade the chickens and dragons were lit on fire and danced in the street, no one was injured (too terribly, some sparks ruined on-lookers clothing and left a few small burns, nothing to cry about. I mean it is Spain after all, anything for a good party).

Locals told me that the season ends on 2nd November. Most shops, bars and restaurants closed after then.

beach was lovely, the sea was so clear, it got deep quiet quickly which we loved and took the opportunity to do some snorkelling.

Not a great deal to do in Calella and not great transfer links to Girona Airport after the beginning of September.
