  1. The door to "Sombra" looks like it leads to adventure ... did you open it? What's inside?

  2. ah !

    it is a door that i can never enter ... the bullring ... which has two seating sections, sol and sombra, sun and shade ... i guess the seats are, or were, more expensive in the shade

  3. Me either then. I just looked up "sombra" and it seems to be also used to mean "shadow" and "darkness." For the bull, these senses of the word would be more apt.
