Alright, I didn't thought I would write a third post about this but here we go :) Let's start with a short video of a... Well that's why I am posting this, what is it?

Looks like a friendly snake with legs :) Anyway.. Last Saturday we went out in the center of Madrid; I didn't really enjoy the bars there, all the ones I've seen being incredibly warm and crowded... Not the kind of relaxing atmosphere to have a beer, to say the least.

But then after 3 we moved to another part of the city and we came across a medium sized place - with about 300 people sitting there, drinking beer, on the ground. All the drinks were being provisioned by chinese people running around with cans they bought earlier and selling them for one euro (legally, shops aren't allowed to sell alcohol after 10pm)... But this wasn't just 3 guys selling a pack of beer, it was like 15 to 20 people selling thousands of cans (and cold, don't ask me how they managed that)! The police came by a first time around 4, had a look, and left... and then came back at nearly five to ask people to leave. You know, it's five o clock, people want to sleep, and you're not really allowed to drink in the streets. With 300 other people. From all the countries I've visited this was really the first time I've seen something like this, was really impressive :) Reminded me of student strikes... Good times... :D

The week after, Juanma brought some roman clothes and a lead rifle to entairtain ourselves at lunch time :) We also started to find more material on site, which was pretty nice.

One archaeologist from a site nearby came over to see what we were doing, and drove us to his site (30 min drive) to show us around. We went there in a really big Jeep, driving quite fast in the small ways leading to it, with russian marches as music.. was a bit surrealistic :D The site was very nice: a Celtic camp, surrounded by 2 roman camps, that had been destroyed.

I am now in Madrid as my plane is leaving tomorrow... I took the time to go to the art museum this time, as last sunday I woke up so late that it was already closed. Picasso was good, but I particularly loved the paintings from Salvador Dali - truly amazing! The temporary exhibition was about art and modern media, it was very, very good as well, I recommend it to anybody in Madrid

Anyway, tomorrow, back to France, yay!
