Posted in Pictures 12 Jul 2010   / 10239 views

Yesterday was the World Cup final match between Spain and Netherlands. For the first time in their history, Spain won! Congratulations. For some people it was even not that big news, because  octopus Paul aka "octopus oracle" predicted Spain's victory in their 2010 World Cup final soccer match against Netherlands by choosing a mussel, from a glass box decorated with the Spanish national flag instead of a glass box with the Netherlands flag. Paul had correctly picked Spain as winner against Germany in the semi-final match.

In this post, you’ll see the best moments from this World Cup as well as the celebration ceremony for winners.

Incredible One of a Kind Soccer Match – Soccer Team vs 200 Kids!!

Posted in Videos 21 May 2010   / 7641 views
In the name of charity, Spain's Athletic Bilbao played against 200 school kids at once! 2 teams of 100 kids each had to play half the game alternately against 11 players from Athletic Bilbao. As 100 kids seemed to be not enough, it was decided to let all the 200 kids play all together.
And if you think that 200 against 11 isn’t fair at all, well, it’s true…
The kids played in a ‘66-80-51’ formation (with 3 goalies), but it wasn't enough to win the game against the Athletic Bilbao, who by the way, won 5-3!
Yep, not fair for the kids… :))

Tomato mess (27 pics)

Posted in Pictures 27 Aug 2009   / 5101 views
La Tomatina is a food fight festival held on the last Wednesday of August each year in the town of Buñol in the Valencia region of Spain. Tens of thousands of participants come from all over the world to fight in a brutal battle where more than one hundred metric tons of over-ripe tomatoes are thrown in the streets.
Approximately 20,000–50,000 tourists come to the tomato fight, multiplying by several times Buñol's normal population of slightly over 9,000. In preparation for the dirty mess that will ensue, shopkeepers use huge plastic covers on their storefronts in order to protect them.

Posted in Pictures 6 Aug 2009   / 8494 views
El Caminito del Rey which means the King's little pathway is a walkway now fallen into disrepair, pinned along the steep walls of a narrow gorge in El Chorro, Spain. The name is often shortened to Camino del Rey.
The walkway has now gone many years without maintenance, and is in a highly deteriorated and dangerous state. It is one meter (3 feet and 3 inches) in width, and is over 300 meters (984 feet) above the river. Nearly all of the path has no handrail.
So, how do you like to go there!
