Last weekend I took the opportunity to procrastinate, put off my ever so important work on the ever so enlightning chapter of the much anticipated book we are writing with my teaching English as a foreign language class and I went to the mountains of Madrid for a little hiking and relaxation.
Obviously it was a holiday in Marid...another Puente....when isn't it? Monday was the day of San Isidro which celbrates the patron saint of Madrid and the official start of bullfighting season. As I was on our 5 hour hike up (and down) the mountain I got the opportunity to do a little bullfighting of my own. Ok, I didn't actually fight and it was a cow, but it had really big horns and who really knows the difference between a cow and a bull anyway. I was still afraid he was going to gore me to pieces for invading his stomping grounds (yes, pun intended.) Thaksfully I made it down the mountain alive and well and the only pains I had were some sore rear end muscles.
