Some time ago, several of my friends realized we all lived within a couple of blocks of one another in the barrio of Recoleta. We kept saying we should get together, and yesterday we finally did. We had champagne at La Biela. As you can see from the photo, we had a good time. We are now calling ourselves the Chicas de Recoleta!

I had my tango lesson right after this with my other new teacher, Beto, and I told him about the champagne.

“So I might dance brilliantly,” I said.

“Or you might not care!” he replied.

Fortunately, I hadn’t had too much champagne and the lesson was fine!
