Flamenco Women – Saturday 17th Dec

 

 

tapasThis is what dinner looked light tonight – some lovely hot stew with a glass of beer….Just enough to get the appetite going. Enough to get me going out looking for more tapas….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While rambling (lost) around the calle de Cádiz tonight I came across the Tuna Femenina De Medicina de Cádiz a group of female flamenco  players, getting all geared up for Christmas.

Can’t remember the last time I saw 12 girls playing flamenco guitar
r, but it was well worth the wait. Eventually they got going and like a runaway train there was no stopping them.emblem

This is what they sound like…

On the way home I could hear the strains of some gypsy singers in the distance, and when I tracker them down, in a local coffee shop – they were getting ready for a serious party.

 

 

As if that was not enough to get me into the Andalusian  spirit these crowd were busking on a side street…..

To wash all that down I simply had to stop off for some Pulpo a al Gallega  (baby octupus with potatoe and some paprika)….

After that…it was simply time for bed….
