Went to the start of the festival yesterday; it´s insane! When the rocket launches at 1pm to signify the beginning of the festivities, all the people in front of the town hall start throwing eggs, flour, tomato sauce, mustard, shaving cream etc on each other. You could probably cook them and end up with a pretty tasty dish (except, of course, for the shaving cream). Then everyone streams towards the old town where all the bars are open and dance till they drop. I didn´t dance till I dropped, thank goodness, because the floors of the bars were filthy, but I had a great time.
These are the photos from Iceland- the top photo is the glacier on which I fell, and the bottom two are my wounds. Tasty.
