San Isidro

Enjoy la verbena

No doubt about it. There is something very 'chulo' or foxy about this dance typical of Madrid. Definitely worth a visit to the 'verbenas' or fairs to see people  enjoying the San Isidro festivals in Madrid and Alcobendas which are celebrated on 15th May.

For that reason we will not be having an activity in our room . We will we wearing a carnation and dancing a 'chotis' like the one in the video.

Have fun!

Your choice

Tomorrow is Wednesday 8th May 2019

We have had Easter holidays followed by general  elections in Spain, followed by a very long weekend break for the 1st and  2nd May. The latter is a very special holiday in Madrid as it commemorates the bold stance the people of Madrid took in defiance of Napoleon´s speading empire.

Thus we  will be able to  discuss the election results and hear about your  recent mini holidays.
