Other programmes... also massive fun.


What's been making this San Fermin festival all this well-known worldwide is most definitely the Bull Running (which now I know is part of animal cruelty, so save it please), but there are many many more programmes than that to this festival. A lot more than I put on this blog thingy. And as far as I witnessed and exexperienced myself, most of them are real fun. Like, REAL FUN.

(No event between 13:00 - 17:30. Well, Siesta in a park.)

21:45, Fireworks Bulls Run

Again and again, and again. And again. (5 times)

23:00, Fireworks

During the fireworks, I remember someone once screaming out in Spanish like "Taaamayaaa" or something just like we the Japanese would say (stereotypically, but no more in reality), but I don't remember what the word was... What was it... Anyone?




00:00, Live Music

01:45, I got on the bus back to Barcelona.





Just for me to keep it in mind, this is what an acquaintance of mine kindly said to me;


you know why bulls run? cause they had been kept in a dark room since the day before and also left unfed. also they rub vaseline on their eyes so they can't see well, and on top of that they're very sensitive to noise so they are totally disoriented and angry. they should change the bull for something else like a giant running ball or whatever.





All in all, this whole festival was truly, unforgettably fun. It really was, in spite of the fact that I was pretty much by myself all the time. As this festival was one of the top in my bucket list (one of my biggest dreams is to see in real life this kind of weird/fun festivities all over the world), I felt like my life was complete and that I could die after with no regret. I also think animal cruelty should be gone, but I do hope that with some changes this fun festival will still go on and on and I can make it again sometime :)
