Remember what I said about the carnival here? Not as bad as the Feast of St. Zeppolidunkingclown? Wrong. Very wrong. We've been living the dream (nightmare) of Catalan carnival for days on end. The obnoxious dunking clown has been replaced with (a) rapid gunfire of firecrackers thrown all over the place to celebrate Merce - the martyr of our little barrio, (b) thump-thump-thump of bad music and recordings of shouting voices to attract uninterested people to rides, (c) screeching voices shouting god-knows what, and (d) catalan speeches of independence accompanied by car horns. Funny thing - nobody seems interested in the carnival anymore. I've heard tonight is the last night.
We turn our fans on full blast for some white noise.
