Concurs de Castells for American Travel Mag Afar

If you can get your hands on Afar magazine keep your eyes out my picture of the Castells taken during the Concurs de Castells in Tarragona. This is an amazing event where teams from all around Catalonia gather in the old bull ring to build human towers. Teams are awarded marks for technicality and the height of the towers. One of the main things that struck me about this sport was the comradery that was shown between the teams. All the teams banded together in order to help each other out when the came to building the more technical castells or the higher ones.
