Week 17 - It's Another Hot, Humid Week



It’s still hot, humid and creamy…

So once again we stay in and work on our projects.
Here’s what we did this week. . .

Juan Carlos, the first black South American we met here.
He was born in Brazil but has been in Argentina for 30 years.

Computer crashes on Monday/redoing by Friday -

very frustrating waiting and then trying to retrive the work
and then reconnecting with wireless,

which by the way is still not working
(the wireless, that is - have to connect with a cable to ethernet)

Tango class, Cultura Tanguera on Friday nite.

As a continuation of John’s work, on Sunday we go to participate in activities at Movimiento Afrocultura.

Movimiento Afrocultural
A center to promote and teach Afroculture in Argentina

There John makes an appointment to interview Javier who is the director of the organization, then we take a tango class and enjoy the Capoeira Angola performance after class.

Tango lesson with Lucia and Jerry...
Finally, we’ve found a native English speaking Tango teacher! Gerry is from Ireland and has been in BA for 10 years learning and teaching Tango – cant’ believe we’ve gotten this far with Tango without an English speaking teacher – we learned a lot in the hour and ½ lesson.
