CARNAVAL esta loca

Cadiz is a cute beach city located on the Southwestern coast of Spain. It was my first Atlantic beach experience! So Carnival is a crazy party and it is celebrated all over the world. The US likes to call it Mardi Gras but Carnival is way better I think. The Cadiz celebration is known for its humorous traditions so instead of your typical glamorous/masquerade theme seen in cities like Rio de Janeiro or Venice, its basically halloween here. The funnier, the better! I decided to rock some white hair and a sparkly top hat, complete with a boa, bright sunglasses and red lipstick.

So me and my girlfriends Megan, Britney, and Julie with about 150 other kids got on a bus for 9 hours and made our way to Cadiz. We went with a promotional company called EuropeanVibe so it was a prepaid thing, all inclusive hotel and travel. The hotel was really nice, and the continental breakfast buffet was to die for. We just went to a bar Friday night, hung out at the beach Saturday, and Saturday evening/night we partied in the streets for Carnival. There were street vendors with food (my baked potato was heavenly!!) and stages set up for performers and costume contests. So many people to mingle with and a great place for people watching! It was blast and I feel so lucky to have experienced such an awesome festival in an old, traditional environment!

I have started to really miss my friends and fam lately so if you read this, just know that I'm thinking about you! Muchos besos xoxx
