Carnival Colors: Águilas, Spain

border between Murcia and Andalusia with a crazy colorful “Rio-esque” style Carnival.
Everyone from infants to the elderly get involved making for a spectacular two week festival. Here is a rainbow of my favorite moments:

Ps… my rainbow includes pink instead of indigo. Mostly because I like pink but also because I’m not exactly sure what indigo is.
