¡Baila, Baila!


Last night we went to a "milonga" which is a tango bar. This is not a tango show... just a bar, where people baila the tango. They had a 1 hour lesson for the beginners (us). It was so much fun! I'm definitely going to get my tango lesson on some more, so I can go back and show those porteños how it's done. El Catedral is the name of the milonga... and it's way cool. It's a bit warehousey, crazy weird stuff on the walls... later they had a live band, and it was just very very cool. I will be back.

After downing some Stella, Cuz B, Cuz Elise and Dancing Partner Luca and I hit the flo'. We did well, caused some traffic jams, minor collisions, but it was really fun. When they asked who did NOT know the 8 basic steps, we all raised our hands. Bueno. Then later on, I think a 75 year old man asked me to dance... or asked why I wasn't dancing? Not sure. Either way, score.

Get yo'tango on
