Seville

[RobMCFC]

We did that 2017 but ended the break in Venice.
Bardolino is the place to stay on the lake , truly beautiful.
Verona is charming and I have said many times before, staying in Venice should be on everybody’s bucket list - easy train connection too.

I am told Lido di Jesilo is a good seaside location too.

My first family holiday abroad in 1982 was a coach trip across Europe leading to 6 nights in Lido di Jesolo. I enjoyed it at the time but no idea what it's like 40 years later.

This clearly isn't the one, cos buskers can't just pitch up and join in, but it is superb. Museo Del Baile Flamenco. It's in the Jewish Quarter. Dance floor downstairs, tiny museum upstairs. I went with Mrs Exeter when City played Seville a few years back. Show lasts about an hour and I won't lie, I thought it was brilliant. Just two dancers, a singer and a guitarist, all of them sensationally good. It's not free though. Cost about 20 Euros I think from memory

That was the show we saw and I can confirm that it was fantastic. There are not many seats and therefore you are really close to the action. Shame we couldn't include some of this in our video I posted above because it is strictly no cameras. I'm not into dancing at all but it was a brilliant experience.

No that isn’t the place I went too. When I mentioned buskers , they don’t play just finish their night there for a chill out .

Yeh, this was a bespoke flamenco dance studio (no bar attached or anything like that) with a couple of shows a day on a small raised platform/stage. Amazing to watch. I have to say, having pulled a face or two when the missus suggested it, I was blown away by how good it was

The kangaroo court of Bluemoon has spoken.

We booked Seville last night.

I can’t fucking wait.

Thanks to everyone who made the effort to post and advise.

If you're staying on the cathedral side of the river then a walk over the bridge will take you to lots of nice restaurants and bars.
Remember though, they have a very long afternoon siesta in Seville. Not much happening between 1 and 4pm

I took my partner to Seville when we played in the CL. I booked an apartment right opposite the Castle and Cathedral overlooking the square. Kept it a Secret. The lift came straight down to street level. We both got in it. It stopped on the top floor and opened straight into an open plan apartment. She walked around it a burst into tears of happiness. As for Seville, BEAUTIFUL! Go!!

Took my Mrs too. We were in O’neils when all the windows came through. Still blames it all on me wanting chicken & chips for tea

Tapas and a belly full of lager !!! Nah
Lovely place tho
