Wish We Were

….at La Tomatina in Buñol, Valencia. ???? ???? ???? 

It’s probably best you don’t wear your best outfit to this festival. The enormous tomato fight has been an annual event occurring on the last Wednesday in August since the 1940s. The origins of this spectacle are unclear but so many visitors now attend that they have had to introduce an admission charge to control numbers.

????????????

One of the rules is that the tomatoes have to be pre-squashed before throwing to avoid injury. We recommend bring a change of clothes in a waterproof bag unless you want your journey home to be, well, interesting.
