Feria de Abril!

Last week Seville had their annual April Fair. It was so much fun! People wear flamenco dresses, dance the sevillanas, drink rebujito (a type of sherry) and go on lots of carnival rides! My roommate and I were lucky because our Senora loves Feria, so she showed us how to accessorize and how to wear our hair. I ended up buying my dress at a market, and my senora helped me with the accessories. Here are a few pictures below.

I met up with my friend Kelly who graduated from Gettysburg last year who now works in Sevilla and danced with her!
A private "caseta," or tent where people were dancing the Sevillanas.

The door to Feria all lit up! It was really pretty this year!
