Bull Fight in Madrid






We were fortunate enough to go to a bull fight with our Spanish friend Jose and his lovely wife. They explained the history and strategy of bullfighting in Spain. Although at times it was very difficult to watch, it was an interesting cultural experience.

Tour de France adventure






We were pleasantly surprised to learn that our trip coincided with the Tour de France, so we made a point to stop and see the show. Here we are in Peripignon, France. We waited for three hours for 30 seconds of action!
