One of today’s highlights was the boys’ first Latin dance class. They were introduced to merengue and reggaetón. Their first moves were tentative and “creative”. After being enticed by a prize (an itunes gift card), it became clear these boys had rhythm. The promise of dancing with girls next Monday also added an extra incentive. The picture here shows the intense concentration at the beginning with their teacher, Cesar. But these boys are clearly 'renaissance men', they are brainy and they can dance!! After an hour of high energy hip-swinging, everyone including their teachers was soaked with sweat and ready for dinner.
Other highlights today included a review of Spanish songs, complete with tambourines; an excursion to an ecological preserve; a Mexican party back at Centro Bilingüe; and a quick trip to the market for souvenir shopping.
After dinner at La Mansión del Bosque, everyone hit the sack early in anticipation of tomorrow’s trip to Guanajuato (which is why we teachers composed tonight’s blog).
