El Flemenco Sevillano

For the next three weeks, I spent time in Andalucia. The south of Spain has a rich history from pre-Roman times, to the Roman Empire, the conquest of the Moors, the Reconquista, the flowing in of money from the Americas, and into the present day. It is a land of art, food, and culuture. Nothing more symbolized the time than Sevilla and Flamenco. We were luck to visit a late night peña to see the music performed in its true settings. Sevilla was a particularly amazing town. We also went to the National Park Doñana and Ronda.

The oven of Sevilla. La Plaza de España


La Casa Ansemla.



El Rocio, a site of one of Spain's most important pilgrimages.

In the wilds of Parque Doñana. The mares roam wild until the collecting season comes.


Something sweet and savory!

The famous bridge of Ronda.
