Encierro - 12 July 2007
In the spirit of Hemingway, on 12 July 2007 my friend and I ran with the bulls during Fiesta San Fermin in Pamplona, Spain. Our wives watched from the fences as hundreds of runners, a dozen bulls, and a half-mile closed course which runs uphill through the old part of Pamplona to the Plaza de Toros made for an exciting 10 minutes during the week-long festival. My friend is in the NBC t-shirt and I am standing to his right. This picture was taken just as the bull in the picture got up after falling down and we paused...before he turned and came back at us. A few minutes later he gored several runners, including two American brothers from Philadelphia.

Who are you? You appear, from my brief viewing, a complete yankee. but listing The Odd Angry Shot and Breaker Morant on your profiles indicates some level of Aussie - I am curious!
