Comparses and Camp

Carnaval continues unabated, but we are slowing down a bit.

Last night we were out on the town dressed up among our fellow Vilanovins for a bit of a fancy dress party in town. We went out mid-evening, and didn't stay out too long, but enjoyed seeing everyone out in their garb.  The El Tacó lads were out and about again in the superheros costumes, while we were out in ours.

Our Sir Lord Tony of TulStig
 and his faithful jester...

and today it all kicked off again (early) for comparses -the sweetie throwing war. Groups from different associations from all over town skip around the streets of VnG throwing sweeties, singing and dancing gradually making their way to the town square where battles of wild ferocity take place. 

Just a bit of a mess ...
