Helmets and hosepipes time again … the Virgen del Carmen cometh

[Michael]

The fireworks were bloody brilliant and so was the company.

I even managed to get yer Virgen woman as well so there's a serious bit of editing to be done tomorrow.

So here it is, my fiesta experience (apart from the din).

Fireworks start at the 7min. mark. I'm not exactly chuffed with how the GoPro captured the colours but to be fair that's probably not what it's built for.

@Michael iv'e been waiting patiently for you to put something on,and you didn't disappoint. Brilliant. Thank you for sharing it

Wow you really captured it.  I had to down the volume as the dingbats thought it was live fireworks. 

I'll bet Perikles really enjoyed the song starting at 3:42 "Somos todos hermanos, hermanos...."

Not really, because I haven't seen the video, not being interested in fireowrks.

I think I must be getting old because whenever I see fireworks I just see money burning.  There's over half an hour of fireworks in that video.  How many thousands (millions?) did that cost?  And that's just one town - money is being set alight in the same way in towns all over Tenerife.  Yes, the sparks are very pretty - for the first couple of minutes - but when I think of what else that money could have been spent on....




But it's a great video

exactly the same thing was the first thing to cross my mind.
