This one was a success!

Yesterday The Scranton Times had my favorite headline. "Best Bets for Sunday- Argentine Tango" Guess where? This one we made special. Andi had her going away cake. Vince had a photographer come at 5:00 and I think he took 1,000 pictures. In came one new couple from Sugarloaf who smiled and smiled. About 5:45 we had the lesson and Mike and I made movies of many of the dancers. 20 of us gathered around the floor watching and learning. Juan suggested the celebration waltz and the guys danced with Andi. Even Mr. Mazz did some walking and side stepping. This turned into a late night for us. A little more work than usual on the clean up end. After we watched the downloaded movies spent another 1/2 hour watching Oliver and Silvina in Moscow doing swing, tango and a milonga- a milonga that can't be described as dance. It is pure joy and energy like a cyclone moving along the floor. All of these are on YouTube from their recent trip to Russia. Anyway it was just the way a tango evening should be.
