The Costa Tropical

Spanish Celebrations on the Costa Tropical

I guess I cannot let yesterday’s victory by Barcelona last night against Man Utd pass without at least acknowledging it. The Spanish are on the whole quite big fans of football, may be not on the scale of the UK but many tiros (fireworks which are all bang and no flash were echoing around the hills behind Almunecar and along the Costa Tropical last night until about 1am. Many Spanish were up late drinking and celebrating and I would imagine that the number of people having “sick days” today was higher than average.

One thing I do commend is the fact that the opposing fans do not feal obliged to riot after as was the case back in the 90s.
