After being bugged to death from my buddy "Francis" about having the loudest clap ever, I started doing some research as well. 97.7db was the world record in 2006, by this said China Man, my buddys claps are very similar to a snub nose .357. He wants to get the Clapping Record to America for the first time ever. Any one know how to get Guinness Book of World Records People to America? I dont want to pay them to come, but if there is a try out or anything, we are there, and then we will break this said Chinamans Record and bring the title back to the Red, White, and Blue. And No that doesnt mean France.

I´m half English half Catalan, and I also have problems with the weather in Catalunya or Spain. Again people use stereotypes, like that it´s always sunny and warm, and that there is no snow (except on hills) or some people are suprised that we have central heating in my town Manlleu, which is inland, from Barcelona. We have cold winters, with temperatures that can go down to -10ºC sometimes even more, like the -17ºC in 2001!!!!! Many garden plants and wild animals died, birds etc. Adam.

Alicante -> Valencia is about 1.5 hours Barcelona -> Valencia is about 3 hours (very nice route along the coast though.) You could fly into Barcelona early in the morning - spend the day there and then come to us in the evening, spend a couple of days and then take another train south and fly out from Alicante!
