Hey CD, If you are still in Spain During the end of august, I recommend you go check out the tomatina (tomato festival) that festival is of the hook! I went last year, and I had a blast.

Yeah, my girlfriends bro works for the tv station in Madrid and went there to film a segment. He said it was crazy! Nothing but party all day all night.
But I forgot what city that was in

I wouldn't hurry off to southern Spain if I were you not until you spend at least a few days on Portugal's Algarve coast at Albafeira (sp?). Fantastic little spot. The Botanical Gardens in Lisbon were quite impressive also with over 100 varieties of palm trees.

Also perfetc timing for San Fermin if you hurry. Has anyone else been to Pamplona to run with the bulls? FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE!
