The Linqia Team took off exploring famous Spanish traditions - we went on a 2 day adventure to Pamplona on the occasion of the Festival San Fermines.
It's a deeply-rooted celebration held annually from noon 6 July, when the opening of the fiesta is marked by setting off the chupinazo to midnight 14 July. Its most famous event is the encierro, the running with the bulls. Throughout the whole week you see special street shows of dancers and street entertainers, such as carnival giants and the week-long celebration involves many other traditional and folcloric events. During this week, every person is dressed in traditional clothes in the colours of red and white!
The outcome for the Linqia team was:
Our clothes were NO LONGER white - sparkled with obligatory red wine!
After celebrating the whole night, we had two team members run at 8 a.m. : our Aussie Jay (he made it for 30 seconds) and our Belgian Star Greg who could not get enough of it and ran straight into the arena with his bull friends. So glad you both came back safe!!
