Euro Cup madness in Santander

Of course July 1st is a special day for me--it's Canada Day!  However, this year was a bit different as it happened to be the Euro Cup final between Spain and Italy, and being in Spain, well no one knew about the former event, but everyone knew about the latter!  Unbeknownst to most people, I donned red and white and we went out to watch the game at a bar in town.  Saving you the story again, Spain won quite handedly (apologies to the Italian fans...) and then it was off to join the rest of the country in festivities.

Singing, dancing and cheering in Cañadio square

Climbing a lamppost....

Costumes...

....inflatable hands....

....giant flags....

...and a homemade replica of the winning cup!
