An evening at El Lago de Tio Parilla--pics from Ginette
Pic of stage...mood getting ready...I can feel the flamenco mood build up by hearing the flamencas' footwork exercises as they prepare their costumes and make up. August 15, 2005 (photo courtesy of Ginette Perea)
These pics were taken last year when Ginette Perea went to Spain for the first time.
I know I'm on a photo publishing frenzy here. Enjoy it while it lasts! ;-) This is the first batch of pics. I'll have the second batch ready later today.
They start off the show with bulerías to get the crowd going...very intensive facial features! August 15, 2005 (photo courtesy of Ginette Perea)

Dancing sevillanas. Oh wait, I recognize that girl in the white dress! She was in Juan de Juan's workshop--very young but the first one to get all the steps down within a matter of minutes! August 15, 2005 (photo courtesy of Ginette Perea)
Dancing soleá por bulerías...very powerful intense look. I love it! August 15, 2005 (photo courtesy of Ginette Perea)
The female singer. She had a great voice. I loved hearing her sing! August 15, 2005 (photo courtesy of Ginette Perea)
I think she was the best dancing onstage. She had the whole package!! August 15, 2005 (photo courtesy of Ginette Perea)
Quick pic of all of us by a kind stranger. The food was good. I had fried shark meat. The table was kinda small though. From the left: Manuel, Anna, Lisa and Ginette. August 15, 2005 (photo courtesy of Ginette Perea)
Gypsies were kind enough to take a quick pic with me and Lisa. August 15, 2005 (photo courtesy of Ginette Perea)
