The next day we went into Vitoria. The Capital of the Basque country. We will be going back on the 4th or 5th for their fiestas to see all the excitement. We spent the day hanging with my cousins but then in the afternoon we went to a type of bull fight but where the bull doesnt get killed. Its a portugese style fight that places like barcelona are starting to adapt.
There are the bull fighters that do leaps and bounds avoiding the bull. At one point after tiering the bull out one of them hopped on his back and took a bow. One bull charged and hit the fence so hard his horn went right thru the fence. One of the bulls did get a horn in one of the guys legs but the rest escaped without too many scratches. It was very entertaining and some of the stunts quite amazing. It is also interesting to watch them pray and ask for saftly many times thruout the event to crosses around their necks or just bowing their heads.
