Fiesta

Mikey P's Latin American party last night. (Shame I've got to go to work today...) Lots of merengue, a nice bachata track (I need a bit more practice at that), samba, disco with a live singer, and a bit of salsa. And the piñata: a huge decorated star-shaped object hanging from the ceiling which blindfolded people took turns to hit until it fell down to disgorge its presents and prize tokens.

It was probably 50% Latin Americans and 50% Cardiff salsa people, which made for a really good atmosphere. Danced with some of my favourite people, including several I hadn't danced with for weeks. I'm hoping this will be a regular fixture as it was a great start to Christmas week.
