MANILVA MUSIC CONCERT SUNDAY.

SUNDAY 24th JULY 2011.

Brenda made us a surprise Smoked Bacon Butties for breakfast to start the day ahead; we ended up at Bar Rojas for a Tapas lunch, Lumy is now making Paella every Sunday and it is ready by 2-00pm so we sat outside under the Sonbrajo and enjoyed the little breeze blowing up from the coast, she had prepared small Fish Brochettes with Gambas and chunks of White Fish served with a Garlic Mayonnaise which were delicious also, When we got up earlier I had popped into the oven a local Chicken to roast, I rubbed it with lots of Lemon juice and sprinkled a little salt on it at the same time, Quickly cooked it in a hot oven with lots of basting and then finished it off to crisp the skin ! We had it cold in the evening with local New Potatoes and Garden Peas and Glazed Carrots – just what we fancied before we headed up for the last of the concerts.

MANILVA MUSIC CONCERT – SUNDAY.

Tonight’s concert featured three Choirs from Manilva; The ‘Amigos de la ASABAM’ from Sabinillas on first to get the audience going, then ‘ San Luis de Sabinillas ’ from the small church in the town and finally they kept the best till last, ‘ Santa Ana de Manilva ‘ which were introduced by Fernando, they brought the house down and even did an encore, one of the Senoras,Isobel,Lucy’s mum got a tremendous cheer when she started to dance a Fandango at the end, that is her in the final picture on the right below ! We are now taking things easy as on Tuesday we have a long day for the ‘ Santa Ana Verbena ‘ festival, the patron saint of Manilva. Watch this space for the full report and pictures !
