Nochevieja en Madrid

On 31 December Mateo wants to finish twelve grapes at Puerta del Sol, because at home he always laughs and leaves the last ones. His sister Ana peels twelve grapes, one for each bell and each month. The square is full, and people watch the clock on the Real Casa de Correos. At bell eight, four grapes are left. He eats the last one on bell twelve. Ana's laugh comes late, and they toast with cava, a Spanish wine with bubbles.
