Finally Thanksgiving

It feels weird posting about Thanksgiving now, but this is what we did after the trip to Italica. It didn't really feel like Thanksgiving at all but we had a good time and ate some good food at a restaurant called Azucar de Cuba (Sugar of Cuba).

Here is Sarah with the two Ana's at the school. On the left of Sarah is the professora Ana Llamazares and on the right is the school office manager Ana Bello.

A live band showed up and played a mix of Cuban and flamenco music. Those who knew how busted out with the Sevillano dance. Everyone who is from Sevilla knows how to do it. There has been a class on Monday nights for students. Sarah and I hope to take it next year.

Then one of the bartenders taught everyone a cuban dance.

As you can see, it definitely wasn't your typical Thanksgiving family get together but everyone had a good time. The restaurant worked hard to make a special thanksgiving plate and everyone had enough fun to get their minds off of being away from their families for awhile.
