En Granada, there is an annual festival that begins the 8th of July and ends the 14th. During this time, the streets are filled with people and there are many activities to partake in and observe, including films, theater performances, flamenco dancing, and the most popular of all, La Feria. In some ways, la Feria is similar to a state fair, but multiply the population by about 100 and you have a Granada festival! Entrance was free, and the place was crowded with people young and old. I went with a couple of friends from Winona on Wednesday evening. We mostly walked around, ate chocolate covered apples, and tested out the carnival rides. I rode the kangaroo...which lasted a total of 6 entire minutes!
The entrance to the Feria was a fake building covered in lights...

The delicious chocolate covered apples, and all the candy you could ever dream of...


Thus concludes the amazing adventure to the Feria de Granada!
