Flamenco in Madrid

The highlight of our trip to Madrid was a flamenco performance at Las Carboneras, a restaurant/flamenco bar near Plaza Mayor. Natalie and I were amazed by the dancing, the atmosphere, and the fact that the kids were actually good for the entire performance, which didn't start until 10:30pm. In fact, Claire and Jax were inspired to try their hands (and feet) at their own version of flamenco shortly after the professionals left the stage.


Obviously this clip doesn't do justice to the real performance, but here's a clip of excellent flamenco dancers we saw.
