Olé!

6-23-10...the rest of my night and FLAMENCO show!

We took the best siesta of our lives in the afternoon in Sevilla. Dinner was at 8pm. It started off with a salad with tuna on it. The main course was some sort of fish that I forced down. Dessert was an orange and cinnamon flavored rice pudding, which was actually kind of good. I definitely broadened my horizons tonight.

Flamenco started at 9:30pm at the Patio Sevillana, which is located across from the river and next to the bull ring. It was a beautiful night and a beautiful area of town. We had the chance to take a few pics at the river before heading to the show.


The Flamenco show was my favorite part of the trip so far. These dancers are incredible, passionate, and graceful. The force they use in their rhythms, stomping, and clapping while wearing huge dresses blows my mind. The men were super talented too. I know, men flamenco dancers, you didn’t see that coming, but they’ve got serious skills. It was hard to get good pictures but I did manage to get a few.

  1. I'm so glad you posted about Flamenco! I was wondering how that went! It sounds like it would be an incredible experience.
    YOU ATE FISH??? I'm flabbergasted. And proud. I hope it was at least good fish, for your sake.
