We just returned from the Running of the Bulls, and it was a sight to see. We woke up bright and early after too few hours of sleep, threw on our white and red, and headed to the arena. We got there just before the running started. We watched the running on a large screen in the stadium, where the run ended. Then they would let bulls out one at a time to run around and let all the people chase them. It made me a little queasy at times, maybe cause of the lack of sleep. No one got gored, but a couple of people were hit hard enough that they were out cold. We got a couple of videos, so I'll attempt to post them.
So is Pamplona anything like Hemingway describes it in "The Sun Also Rises"? It all looks pretty nifty.
ReplyDeleteWe were wondering why there are so many Hemingway references here, and I guess you answered that for us. No clue if it's anything similar to what he described.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure I understand why anyone would want to get in the way of a bull. I am glad you all choose to stay out of the way. Guess you had to hold Matt back. Your videos turn out good
ReplyDeleteBe safe and have a good time
love you Aunt Linda
