Ok... real quick... We went to the Bull Fight the other night. It was really cool. The arena was amazing and the crowd was really into it. And the actually "Bull Fight" was interesting, but extremely not fair to the Bull! There are like 5-6 Matadors and 2 guys on horses (and the horses by the way are covered head to toe in steel armor)... and they tease the bull and co-hearse him over to the guys on the horses... who then stab him to make him tired... then the other 5-6 Matadors throw huge darts with a drug on it at him to... then after the bull has nothing left, the main Matador comes out... does his thing and kills him! The crowd goes wild... and then a team of horses comes out... they hook the bull up to the horse and they drag and parade the dead bull around the arena and out the door. UNREAL!
Also... which I found interesting was there were 6 bull fights in one "show" and they have a prize ceremony at the end, usually. But this time, the 6 Matador was so bad and took forever, the crowd practically boo-ed him, that there was no ceremony. Very Interesting...
Anywho... in Seville right now... this is a Beautiful city. The River, Cathedrals and Alcazar are breathtaking... I will have photos up shortly... and the I am off to see Flamingo Dancers tonight. EXCITING!!
