All the dresses were very colourful and worn with pride from the children to the old women, the men were dressed in the typical Andalusian dress and looked very elegant. Families were enjoying the day together
In the bull ring they put on a show which lasted two hours and it cost 3 euros (£2) to watch it, there was horse riding skills and dancing. It was very enjoyable and you could see how much work and patience that was put into the training of the horses, I am please to say they looked well looked after and in very good condition which is not always the case with animals here.
We were very worried about going into the bull ring in case it was a bull fight which is held on Sundays but were assured that this was not the case, we would of had to walk out if it had of been, but the only bull fight were saw was pretend and no bull was hurt.(Video of this)
Here are a couple of videos of the show as it went on for two hours there was to much to video.

After the show every one made for the marquees where there was eating drinking and dancing going on. Apart from the three euros to see the show (which you did not have to go into) it was all free, they were giving drink and paella away.
As were don't eat paella and I don't drink and Brian was driving we went to the bar on the prom. and had a meal while being serenaded by Spanish entertainers.
What a day.

What a lovely insight into life in Spain! We have had such a damp, miserable day here in the UK today, it was nice to see people enjoying the sunshine:0) Thank you Jeanette.
Looks like a lot of fun! I'm glad they were not real bull fights!
What good times you and Brian have. Everthing is so colourful. I loved the litle girl in the red dress, also the clever horse that could dance. I don't suppose you and Brian have learned to do Spanish dancing!
What a bright and cheerful blog Jay! I loved the horses dancing and fighting hee he.
Glad you had a great time and thank you for the blog being so prompt.
Like Leeta I thought the little girl looked so sweet sitting up so proud of herself.
