GOOOAAL!!!

Walking to the stadium

My seat midfield 

My sweet family gifted me with a ticket to the Vitoria futbol game- Deportiva Alaves vs. Atletico Madrid for my birthday.   It was fun getting to the stadium via foot, through a wealthy neighborhood and beautiful trees.  It was a 20 minute walk from the city and lots of folks were walking there.   When I got there, the parking lot was completely empty.   I learned later that no cars are allowed to park there for security reasons.  I went to the entrance and scanned my ticket and walked in with no metal detectors.   The police asked to look in my bag and I had to take out my water bottle.  Oops didn’t think about that.   All I had to do was give my name and number, and I got a little ticket with a number to claim my bottle after the game.   It was like going to a show back in the day with no security detail. 

I had an amazing seat at midfield.  The game was very exciting with lots of loud chants and cheering.  The soccer was good and we tied the game!  

On the way back to the tram, I passed through the park and was happy to see the dance party.   The elders really know how to party on a Saturday night.   I absolutely love watching them dance!

                                   Mass exodus!
