Mascleta-Close

The final mascletà of Fallas 2009 was shot off by they company of Ricardo Caballer, and what can we say? If you were anywhere within a 60-mile radius, you already know that it didn’t disappoint. But you did have to be present to see the colorful streamers explode over the crowd — a trick which was new to us.

In a day filled with noise and explosions, this was an incredible experience. If you only went to one mascletà, I hope it was this one.
