Flamenco Festival New York, February, 3 - 24, 2007

This is without a doubt one of my favorite times of the year. I look forward to the Flamenco Festival the way children look forward to Christmas and this years production is the equivalent of lifetime supply of PSP's and Sidekicks. The Festival and the accompanying events have me giddy with anticipation. Que viva España! Que viva!!!!!
