It's ten o'clock in the
morning on the sixth of July
and from all parts of Pamplona
and the surrounding villages
the young and not so young
-all dressed in dazzling
white- are leaving their homes
all heading in the same
direction. For them, the
square in front of the City
Hall is the centre of the
world where the fiesta
explodes into life as the
first rocket breaks the
silence of the heavens.

At noon of Friday, the 6th of
July, the fiesta exploded.
There is no other way to
describe it. (Ernest
Hemingway)
