Paris


Just got back from trip to Paris with my younger daughter. Didn't get to any salsa, but we did see some cool breakdancing by Anvers tube, just near our hotel in Montmartre. (Le Regent - recommended as it's friendy, well located and easy to reach from the Gare du Nord). I'm definitely planning to go on a specifically salsa trip there sometime - there seems to be a lot going on.

Paris is where Kate learnt to salsa. Last night was the third week of her rueda course and at last she's managing to knock the group into some sort of shape. Things were starting to get properly lively and dynamic by the time we finished practising. We got to try calling the moves ourselves, which seemed to be going well until I called 'dame dos' which we hadn't covered and reduced the group to chaos...
