Salsa at the Hispanic Festival

.
There's a lot going on in town this weekend. Besides the big annual outdoor art fair (actually, we have two, May and September, but this is the REALLY BIG one), there is also the Hispanic Festival. That's downtown, close to my office, and I went there Saturday afternoon. The dancers and musicians knew how to work that thing. I guarantee that they use more parts of their bodies than the Irish dancers I featured a couple of weeks ago. (See here and here. I can say stuff like this because I'm of Irish descent.) In this picture, a young couple was giving a salsa demonstration. A few minutes later they came down into the street and gave lessons to all comers. Are we having fun yet?

WHAT"S ON FOR SUNDAY: shoot the Art Fair. Bang bang, your image is captured. Does that mean I've stolen your soul?

TOMMORROW: arts or crafts, for sure.

A beautiful girl captured just perfectly. I am envisioning you and Mrs. S.T. performing a scintillating salsa number in the street of SL!
