Camping Out for Change...

With the long weekend and beautiful weather finally here many people plan to head up north with the family and go cottaging or camping. This is extremely different from the popular form of camping going on in Spain.
For the past week hundreds of tents have been pitched and thousands of people have been in Madrid, Spain's capital. Their cause? To protest certain economic policies and the issue of unemployemnt within the country. This far protests have been fairly unviolent, but the demands of the protestors have not been adressed.
We'll keep you posted as this continues!
