Feria de Abril, Seville's April Fair

These ladies were kind enough to let me take their picture!

Feria de Abril, Sevilla’s April fair started today! It’s quite a fashion show. Before I get into that we sold our house in Madeira Park but I’ll do a separate post on that because there is a lot to learn from our experience.

The fashions change over years also, men’s not so much but details on women’s do. The accessories e.g. flower in the hair are just as important as the dress itself. 

We are moving back to Freiburg Tuesday of this week, our partners D & E are going back to a cold Ottawa. 

Here are the first pictures, shot today. There will likely be more.

He said Hola! 
Look at the heads of the horses, adorned as much as the ladies, almost.
In the short time we were out I saw more white dresses than other years.

I must get busy with packing but doing so as not obvious as possible, Lexi gets upset and hides herself. So I choose what goes and it gets thrown into the suitcase last minute. I'll be keeping my ears peeled for the clip clop of horses while doing so, camera around my neck.

Cheers Bx2 and Lexi Cat
