After asking around, we found a sort of underground tango club in Buenos Aires, called La Viruta. We arrived just in time to see a quick show of amazing dancers. After the show they broke up the crowd and held lessons, beginners, int and advanced. Greg and I were getting ready to dance without a class, we were intently watching thinking we could figure it out somehow. Thank god for the class.
Although all the amazing argentine dancers were getting pissed off as we stepped, pushed and tripped over them, we thought we were exceptional tango dancers (exactamente, we think very highly of each other) In the end we left smiling and sweating, very pleased to have experienced and learned tango, al estilo argentino.
We loved Buenos Aires, even though I had been there a few times before, it was wonderful to experience it with my love. The city has changed so much, when I was last there during the financial crisis there was a much diferent feel. Now it seems the country is out spending money and we didn´t see one manifestation.....
Greg and I are in El Calafate, ready to head off on our trek tomorrow am. We are well rested (and fed) and happy to be getting out of the city and the heat. Last night we roomed with an actor from France and a finance guy from London, tonight we hope to have new roomates that do not snore.
all my love,
Alejandra
