Fallas

The winner of the 2008 was teh Falla of Nou Campanar by fifth consecutive year and although the wind pulled down two figures of upper part of the Falla when it was being mounted. A suitable repair so that the hollow resulted in the place of the figures wasn't noticed was carried out and the the huge size of the Falla resulted that the lack of these two figures wasn't obvious.

 

Pardoned ninot was for Falla Convento de Jerusalén, taht was also the second of the special section, a very good falla that everybody liked a lot.

 

The City council falla was also at a grat level and was quite fun. First prize for "talent and grace" was for the amused Falla of Na Jordana.
