Oh, it's been such a lovely day! (Well, at first it wasn't that lovely. I tried to find a new bikini, which proved to be very difficult. Seems that if your bust is sligtly bigger than "normal" (whatever that means), bikinis are not made for you. I found one in the end - black, boring, pretty ugly, not at all the splash of color I would want to wear - but at least my breasts don't fall out ...)

First I went to see Kristian's and my intermediate lindy class performing on the yearly West Coast Jitterbugs summer show (I was in it last year which was great fun, but there was no advanced routine this year). Look how pretty they were! The other groups mostly wore black (also shown above, the intermediate/ advanced routine) or white, but we went for crazy colors (yes, my idea :)). And they were all so good, I sat smiling with joy, it's so wonderful to be able to teach someone something, and that it looks like they're having fun learning it, and performing.

Then we (as in, about fifty of the West Coast Jitterbugs) went in a rented bus to a open-air dance floor with a lawn and a lake next to it, perfect for a day with as lovely weather and as lovely people as these. They are so much fun to be with and it's sad that I've hardly spent any time with them during these past busy months of no dancing. That must be changed!

Right now, looking forward to sitting on the balcony in the evening warmth with the boyfriend and lots of Ben & Jerry's. It's all good.
