Okay each province has its own 26 00:04:04,969 --> 00:04:14,449 traditions and festivals. For example in Zaragoza they celebrate las fiestas del 27 00:04:14,449 --> 00:04:26,660 blood around the 10th or the 12th of October, right? Pamplona, which is in Navarra, they 28 00:04:26,660 --> 00:04:34,560 celebrate the San Fermines, okay? You know, with the running of the bulls.
