章節(jié)摘錄

版權(quán)頁：Well, before I began my Crack Jimmy's shell challenge, I hadmore important things to do, like get the hell out of there. The famousLa Tomatino Festival in Spain was about to happen and I had rigorously（嚴(yán)格地） organized my trip on the Internet. It's truly amazing the amount of information and help you can get from all the traveling websites. I like to be organized and prepared for all eventualities （n.不測事） that might happen. My air tickets and hotel were booked in a dvance,and I got all the 'juice' on visas, currency, and transportation （train from Valencia to Bunol-$3.00！） from the Net. I've printed off maps of the city and town, got lists of all the famous attractions, nightspots, ,and the best restaurants for that authentic paella （n.西班牙肉菜飯） experience. So anyway, the weekly festivals were in full motion and I was having the time of my life. A feeling of impending （adj.逼珀的，迫切的） excitement was pervading （v.彌漫，遍及） the air as everyone was getting ready for the culmination （n. 頂點，最高潮） of the festival-the biggest food fight in the world. 125 to nnes of tomatoes to be turned in tohuman ketchup （n.番茄醬） in just two hours！ No one knows exactly why the tradition began back in the 1950's, but it has become a bit of are ligious occasion for those who worship the Temple of the Great Toma to, nail, it's actualy Christian. Doesn't matter much to me, I just wanted to be part of the chaos-I even wore a white suit. People say this is a metaphorical attempt at suicide, but I'm always up for a challenge！
