There are so many theatrics that go on within a bullfight from the costumes to the way that the torerros walk!!! Not to mention the horses that distract the bulls, the removal party, and live brass band! Overall, I would call it a worthwhile cultural experience. I didn't find that it was very brutal, though I can't say watching something die is my favorite pastime.
Yesterday, there was a nationwide strike in Spain. Everything was supposed to shut down, but the turnout wasn't as great as hoped for. I was still expected to go to school, despite limited public transportation, however, most people didn't make it too class (unfortunately, I was one who did). Also, my new food obsession is tortilla España, I will try to find a recipe soon. Essentially, it is what the Spanish define as an omelet and it is fattening me up!
