Feria in Jerez de la Frontera

A group of teachers from my school were going to the Feria in Jerez de la Frontera, which is a town near where I teach, so we decided to go as well.  Becky, Tyler, Chuck, and Carol took the train and spent the day in Jerez, including a visit to the Tio Pepe bodega. I met up with them after school, and after a siesta, we headed over to the Feria. It was neat for Becky and Tyler to see how the Feria works - with the women in flamenco dresses with flowers in their hair, lots of men riding horses, casetas, dancing, flamenco music, food, rebujito, etc. We met up with some of the teachers from my school, had some tapas and rebujito, and listed to flamenco music. The light display after sunset (above) was incredible! Everywhere you looked there were arches covered in lights. Simply stunning!
