San Isidro, Patron Saint of Madrileños and Snoods

May 15 is one of Madrid's two patron saint festivals. All the chulapos and chulapas (that would be the local working class) come out in their checkered vests, form-fitting dresses with mutton sleeves, and curious headgear to dance the chotis and drink vermouth. On tap, of course.
