Goodness gracious, now I’ve done it! I should have stayed with the tour, but no, I knew better!

So I guess this place must be one of those gigolo bars. Sheesh, every man in here is dressed better than I am. They all have those fancy things on their shoulders like they’re colonels or something, but I bet they’re not. They even have CAPES for cripes sake, and here I am in a plain dress!

They all look so smarmy, but they’d be offended if I left without an escort. I’ve gotta break the ice. How do you suppose you say “Do you want some flan?” in Spanish?

There are old bullfighters and there are bold bullfighters, but there are no old, bold bullfighters…

Hello again, after more than 12 months without any comments here. I am back. I think Mr. Basler is in Spain these days in the middle of the Fiesta and he is in the know, he understands quite well what is going on here!. It is San Fermin Festivals. ¿Te apetece un flan?(Do you fancy having a caramel?)
