According to wikipedia, "The Plaza Mayor has been the scene of multitudinous events: markets, bullfights, soccer games, public executions, and, during the Spanish Inquisition, "autos de fe" against supposed heretics and the executions of those condemned to death. The Plaza Mayor also has a ring of old and traditional shops and cafes under its porticoes. Celebrations for San Isidro, patron saint of Madrid, are also held here. The Plaza Mayor is now a major tourist attraction, visited by thousands of tourists a year."
And now it houses the first international sighting of Porange. Everything has a habit of coming together. Coincidence that Stats BM found Porange in Madrid during her travels and Madrid's patron saint is St. Isidore? Or Coincidence that Stats BM and I became fast friends during CCD (Confraternity of Christian Doctrine or Catholic Education classes)in middle school at St. Isidore's Parish? I think not.
