Whitsuntide 2010 - Work, Music, Dance & Joy

May 24, 2010

This year’s Whitsuntide was all about working but…

I had to catch up some work. Therefore I worked three to four times as much a day as usual.

Yet there should be some time for music and dance! ;)

On Friday I went with my friends from the university’s dance course to one of our dancing schools, Tanzhaus Buresch, near the main station. We danced Latin and Standard, some Salsa and I tried to teach some Tango Argentino in ten minutes. ;) At the end, we were three left of all guests. We are always the last leaving! :D It was already around 2am.

This week there was also the yearly Jazztime festival. We decided at the dance to go there on Saturday.  It was a very sunny day and an awesome atmosphere. There were around 11,000 people sitting and standing on the plaza and the green areas in front of the theater TfN of Hildesheim. The local hero B. B. & The Blues Shacks were celebrated and they had to give a lot encore at the end. It was a perfect evening!

The Sundays are our “Salsa Nights”. After more than a year I finally made it to the Napo’s Bar again. It was quite difficult to get into Salsa again but it was good to be back. :)

So, this weekend was all about music and dance - all about good times!!! :)

Resorts Lover:

I’ve not been in the Philippines for long but its clear to me it’s an amazing land. Anyway, I’m just commenting here because I’m reading blogs about Manila. and found your blog through google. If you can share any ideas on things to try when in Manila then I’d appreciate hearing them. Happy Holy Week!

Vliebergh Anne:

Hello Ingo,

My name is Anne Vliebergh, I am a 42 years old woman of Belgium and I have a request for you.

I’m reading with great pleasure your blog because I’m a big big big fan of Argentina. I had the luck
to spend 2 weeks in Buenos Aires in July, together with my friend, a lady of about my age too.

We had the time of our live over there as we have a lots of friends over there and now we were able to meet
them in person. We have received so many enthousiastic reactions when we came home so that I decided to write
down a report of our trip. Afterwards I added some photos to my report…but the problem is that we don’t have
so many photos and we didn’t have such a great camera…so can I use some of the photos on your blog
in my report. Of course I’l mention your name and if you like I’l enumerate the pictures that are yours.

For the moment, the report only exist in Dutch (I’m Flemish). I’m looking at a translater to put it in Spanish
because I have to spread it in Argentina also. I do speak a bit Spanish, but not enough to translate the whole
report. So, if I have the Spanish version, and if you like, I can give you a copy of my report in Spanish later on.

I hope on a positive reaction !

Enjoy the coming New Year !!!

Anne, Belgium.

Weather here in Bs.As. is just too hot! It’s 2am and we still have 28°C. There will be 36°C tomorrow. Good that I’ll go to the Jungle where it’ll be 3°C less - but 90% of humidity :-S

"The forms of tango are like stages of a marriage:
The American tango is like the beginning of a love affair, when you're both very romantic and on your best behavior.
The Argentine tango is when you're in the heat of things and all kinds of emotions are flying: passion, anger, humor.

"Tango que he visto bailar
contra un ocaso amarillo
por quienes eran capaces
de otro baile, el del cuchillo.
Tango de aquel Maldonado
con menos agua que barro,
tango silbado al pasar
desde el pescante del carro.
