Although CC and JD had seen many castells over the years, this was perhaps the first time we'd gained ...

The Ajuntament front door was open, so we checked at the desk and were told that it was ok to go inside. The childrens' versions of the beasts of the Seguici Popular were on show in the first hall whilst a side room contained a huge boat thingy and an exhibition of some rather pedestrian maritime paintings by a Russian artist who had visited Tarragona recently.

JD and CC had been going on about the Donosti restaurant in ...
