We were in Tabanco el Pasaje, a refuge. This is a wonderful old sherry bar -- perfect place to have some moments of quiet in the middle of a Zambomba Sunday.

  
Update: I received an email from Tabanco el Pasaje asking permission to hang a reproduction of this drawing in the bar.  I guess they found it on the Internet.  I'm delighted -- here's a photo they emailed me showing the drawing hanging on the wall, in the frame in the middle.
