Travels, Toros and a little Treat



After spending most of Sunday entrenched in business discussions, the next day we decided to leave the hotel for a day trip to Ronda. Ronda is home to the oldest bullfighting ring in Spain, and despite our general opposition to the sport, we thought it was something we should see. Ronda has bullfights only one weekend of the year, in September, during the main town festival. The rest of the year tourists are welcome to tour it and even walk into the middle of the ring. After a brief tour of the town, our adventurous whims took over and we hiked down a very precarious, steep, rocky trail to get the best angle on the huge gorge that splits the town in two.

Here are some more photos from the day:









And finally, here is a little treat for all of you:

Never knew Andrew had so much "jive" - from here, it looks like a contagion. Have loads of fun. Al

Who says white boys can't dance! Andrew can sure shake his money maker. Mark we all know you are aboriginal so it is no surprise that your moves are superior to most mortals.

I love the picture of the bridge and the image of the red wagon wheels. Very Geographic!

You make me crazy.

I like how you guys are *working it*

I've been to Ronda. Had to stop the car for some goats. Go to a real bullfight if you can, they are amazing.

Ok,

I am in the middle of a nutty wedding show, and I can't stop laughing as I keep seeing Mark and Andrew bouncing on the sofa with that crazy music in the backround. It keeps looping in my brain. Help me make it stop!!!!!!!
