Magia Potagia!!


Yesterday (8th  October) I met Miriam and Sofia, who are good friends of mine. I haven't seen them for months, so we arranged a meeting.
We went to a close bar to have a bier and when we were there we saw two more friends, Alejandro and Guillermo, who joined us.
After a fun afternoon the girls came to my house to continue the encounter there. We had so much to talk about. It's complicated for us the way things have changed. A few months ago, we saw each other faces everyday, even if we don't fancied, but now, we have to meet previously if we want to.

Sofia's dad gave her four tickets for Juan Tamariz magic show in the Auditorio so she invited us, but Miriam couldn't go, so eventually it was Sofia, her brother, my dad and me.
Strange group.
Miriam went home, because her boyfriend was waiting for her and Sofia stayed with me.
She had dinner at my house and later rwe went to the Auditorio met his brother, who had the tickets, and went inside.

I'm completely skeptical, ergo I don't believe in magic. But it doesn't mean I don't enjoy a good play.

Juan Tamariz is a magician and illusionist, he is an expert in card magic and in misdirection.
He is not just a showman, he has written some books, several other publications and created a mnemonics card order, which is a way to remember the order of the cards by heart.
He is married with Gema Navarro, whit who shares his love for magic.
He is known throughout the world, and respected by the magicians' community for his innumerable contributions to magic.
He studied Physics until 4th grade, but he left it and studied magic. I think his studies help him to be a better magician.


I have to admit I enjoyed the show, it was amazing the way he cheated and distracted us.
However, the thing that surprised me the most was his sense of humor, he can't hide his Sevillian veins.
We were completely amazed and open-mouthed during the whole show, and I want you to believe me, so I pasted a video, enjoy it!


 One of his typical card plays, the famous 6 cards trick. Amazing!!
