10 seconds of flamenco

5 days in Sevilla, and we’re already liking it a bit more than Madrid. Or as Spaniards would probably say, they are just different. Madrid had more of the city feel – narrow streets, late night-life, too many Starbucks, cars honking. Don’t get me wrong – if given the chance, I’d go to Madrid again in a heartbeat. But I think I like much more the feel of Sevilla – probably because it’s more like home in that it’s smaller and more manageable in the course of a couple days (kind of).

Training has been full, but CIEE has been really good about allowing us afternoons and evenings to explore the city. Tonight we went to a flamenco show, and I feel a bit guilty after they explicitly told us not to record video (even holding up a sign in English), but here’s a 10-second clip at the end of the show when they said we could take still photos. This isn’t even the really good stuff – you’ll have to come here to see that.

Lauren and I also had a little fun with the camera before the show:
