In the Streets (travel continued)
The Spanish take their politics seriously. On our first full day in Madrid we saw three anti-austerity marches. After that we saw demonstrations almost daily. Unions, healthcare professionals, students, senior citizens, people from all parts of Spanish society were marching.
It was impressive to see so many young people out in the streets.
100,000 people out in the streets of Madrid protesting cuts to education.
