San Isidro in Torrejon










San Isidro at Oscar´s School, JABY. On the 15 May, we were all invited to celebrate San Isidro at Oscar´s school. San Isidro, the labrador, is the patron saint of Madrid, capital. He was a religious youth (12 Century) who worked in the fields and gained a reputation for preforming miracles. Since Torrejon isn´t Madrid, Oscar didn´t have the day off so his school decided to celebrate it in its patio (playground) . Here are some pictures of Oscar dressed up in the costume of Madrid (as a chulapo) and dancing the regional dance, the shotish .


Oscar and Luna dancing.



Oscar danced his one dance and then was off. Why spend such a beautiful day dancing when you could be playing???
