Spain

Fireworks on the Mediterranean Sea

There is an international fireworks competition held in Alicante each year. Our friends Mike and Liz invited us to go on their sailboat to watch the fireworks from the sea.

We went out and anchored off the coast near in front of the Castle of Santa Barbara. The view was quite stunning to see the city and the castle in the evening from the sea.

We enjoyed the views and warm evening while we waited for the fireworks to start.

The fireworks were beautiful and lasted approximately 20 minutes. There were some unique fireworks and the show was great to watch from the water.

We had a great time with friends, there were lots of laughs and lots of fun.

We still find it hard to believe at times that we are living in Spain. It is an adventure almost every day.
