The Iberia Week Organizers did things well. There was plenty of food and sangria today for everyone's enjoyment on the Insead's grass! If Fontainebleau knew!

The Porron and Wine Making (barefoot and gesticulating MBAs in search of poetic inspiration in wine vapors emanating from a small basin) contests were hilarious!

And the Sevillana/Flamenco (I couldn't tell the difference) demonstrations were very good. It is a very suave and aggressive type of dance. Interestingly, the man looks very feminine at times and the woman can take very masculine poses. Maybe this is a good representation of the Spaniards, of their passion for life, of the hydrant fire that seems to continuously run through their veins and give them this fierce look and energy for life!

During lunch, we had a medieval-looking band singing away serenades for everybody - with beer cans appearing suspiciously from under their costumes.

All in all, a fun week! And today, I am disappearing in a neighboring country again, this time with a bunch of friends. Six of us will experience the joys of Parisian traffic in the evening...

Classes are definitely in the background, I have a few projects going on, I will try to finish most of them between now and Tuesday next week so that I can free up my time.
