We were there during a big holiday trifecta: National Day, Columbus day and a religious holiday. All week long the streets around our hotel were fitted out with grandstands and sound and satellite centers. The security was intense, with the police using our front courtyard area for a staging center. On the day of the parade, our hotel and the surrounding area were on lockdown. All the computer and cell systems were scrambled to prevent any terrorist acts and the only thing on the tv was the parade. We had to show our hotel key to armed guards to get onto the street and then back to our room after. I would have loved to seen the opposite side of the Spaniards with their crazy abandon during that festival you saw. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
