Crowds of hooded figures, flames and fireworks I must be back in SE London, no it's the annual Fiesta Major in La Bisbal, where local tradition is celebrated with the
Ball des Dracs. I'm not sure what was going on but it involved being chased down dark alleys by dragons, whirling fireworks paraded down narrow streets, fire crackers raining down on our heads, flaming figures abseiling down the cathedral and a good hosing down at the end. A whole town out on the streets enjoying themselvs and all served up with refreshing disregard for UK style health and safety, fantastic fun!
