We haven't quite figured out all the social cues of Spain. When do you not take your top off on the beach? Do you put it back on to go in the water? Can you just sit at any open table outside and get served? But the most of these is what I call street drinking. Wander down any street in Alicante after midnight and you will find large groups of young Spaniards drinking a mix of Coke or Fanta with their alcohol of choice. The Police seem to have issues with this, but the crowds are larger than they can control. So, we watched the police come in, scatter the crowd to different dirrections only to catch up with them later on a different street.
On a related note, street peeing also seems to be a big thing. Especialy after 2 a.m. We caught several people peeing on old buildings or behind dumpsters. We laughed, so did they. But imagine...that goes on every night. I feel a need to wash my feet before bed.
