Today was amazing. I've been in Madrid for a week now and today I ran with the bulls! I can't even explain what it was like, just amazing. I ran next to 3 bulls, heard the bells behind me, jumped onto the fence and then jumped back down to run to the arena, where another bull passed me. I thought he was the last and as we're all standing trying to get into the ring, this guy turns around and I just see a bull smack him in his head. He was only 5 feet away from me, it was just shocking. Over 30 people were injured. It was a dangerous run today, it hasn't been this bad all week. Here's the link to the video from today:

It's on the side, on the right.
I found myself in the video too at 1min 16 secs:
What an accomplishing feeling! I just can't explain the feeling of panick that thousands of people are running as fast as possible, falling in front of me, hearing the bells around the bulls necks, looking to my side and seeing bulls, it's just amazing. I'm so tempted to do it again tomorrow, but maybe not. I'll just count myself lucky and check that off my bucket list.
I've also been to la tomatina, which is a tomato festival on a tiny street, you are completely cramped and there are trucks full of tomatos dumped on top of you. Locals are spraying water from hose pipes, and throwing wine down on you. Basically a massive food fight. That was next level, so fun as well!!
Ahhhh what a good holiday so far
