Cafe near the ColosseumWhile I was taking a photo of this scene, a fight broke out!  I wasn’t in the middle of it…  but I was close enough to hear the nature of the argument.  It involved a bunch of drunk guys and mentions of futbol players from various countries.  There was even a barstool that was brandished!  It was very exciting, but I had to wait for everyone to get their grip before I took the photo…- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the entire post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
The Bullfighter
I arrived in Nimes a the day before the Sting concert, and I wanted to get a few shots of the old city right away.  The weather and light cooperated!

Maybe this is the best preserved Roman coliseum in the world?  I don't know that for sure, but it's the best one I have seen.  And, even better, it's still in good enough shape that they use it for concerts, bullfights, and even swimming events!

In front of the coliseum is this grand bullfighter.  It's kind of the main "meeting place" for many people in this area, so I had to be extremely patient waiting for people to clear the area so I could get a shot!
