Final Post of our trip.

This is the last of the pictures of our trip and then we will return to normal blogging programming. The last night of our stay in Madrid we went to see the Bull Ring. The place where the bull fighting takes place. It was very interesting to see, they were getting ready for the Davis cup there so we were not able to see the inside but it was still amazing.

These next 7 pictures are a series of copper plates that were lining the walls. It shows what happens during the bull run and fighting. I thought they were very interesting so I took a picture of all of them.







Here is the only picture that we got of the inside. It was the only look we got into the stadium.
Here is a poster of the upcoming bull fight

It was very interesting to see. They said that the arena hold 20,000 people.
Well that is all from our trip to Europe. More to come from the Beck family.
