Constitutional Court & Fiesta Day

---

So, short back-up entry. We visited the Consitutional Court of Spain on Wednesday. It's actually quite impressive. Apparently the Spanish Constitution has been rewritten several times... the last time was in 1982. This was the only time that a Constitutional Court was created to allow different regions to have a court to settle disputes with the federal government. They also have a great library that reminds me a lot of Beauty and the Beast.

Later that night we had a fiesta complete with Sangria. See the pictures. Sorry this is a short post!

It's pretty big.

Those circles are for interpreters to translate what is being said... people in the seats each have a headset that they can tune into the appropriate language for them.

Fiesta
W&M people.

Fiesta
Yes, you're right... we're missing tables and chairs.

Fiesta
Don't worry about it, it's not like the grass is wet or anything...

Fiesta
But at least there is Sangria.
