4. THE FESTIVAL OF SAN FERMIN
AT 7:00 IN THE MORNING THE PEOPLE BEGIN THE
RUN. THEN 6 COWS RUN ALONG THE STREETS.
LATER 6 BULLS START THE RUN. THERE ARE
PEOPLE LINED BEHIND BARRICADES ALONG THE
STREETS. VERY QUICKLY THE BULLS AND COWS
CATCH UP WITH THE PEOPLE. THIS IS WHEN IT
GETS VERY DANGEROUS. THEY ALL RUN TOWARD
A BULL RING WHERE YOUNG MEN PRACTICE TO BE
MATADORS. THE PEOPLE EAT A LOT OF ROASTED
CHICKEN DURING THE FESTIVAL. THIS OCCURS
EVERY MORNING FOR TWO WEEKS IN JULY.
