Crafty in the Med

I am here to enjoy meeting other bloggers and to share my love of craft ,mostly crochet, my thoughts and my daily happenings here in Alicante,Spain, my adopted country. I belong to a local choir because singing and music makes me happy. Flea markets and book shops are two of my favourite places to be. I read lots......sci´fi/fantasy,buried treasure, and off world adventures. I have a passion for history! I walk and walk and walk for about 10 months per year during the hot months I swim.

Ole! Ole! Ole! colour and flamenco


Andalucia has been celebrating The Day of Andalucia and for those Andalusians who cannot get back home then its fiesta wherever they are:
In Alicante down on the Esplanada de España it has been choc-o-bloc with people watching the various performances of the different Andalusian folkloric groups. The Andalusians who live in Alicante also profess their devotion to their land by dressing up in the typical Sevillana dresses and dancing flamenco to the sound ot the music on the Esplanada.
 Passionate music which gets your toes tapping and your body swaying! Alicante, Esplanada de España.
Hold on I've lost Sr P among all these people!   
Green scarves representing Andalusia.
Vibrant music that rings throughout Alicante City!
Ole! Ole! click and tap to the music!

and then swirl around!
Gorgeous flouncing dresses and beautiful women!

Bright bright colours draw attention!



Another regional group break into song and dance.

A glimpse of bright finery!

Ahhhh! music is joy!   Wonderful morning!
