Dancing Feet ...

There are a couple campus activities that I don't want to miss and one of those is the Latin American Student Organization's Fiesta which took place two Saturdays ago. 

Each year the event seems to grow and is definitely one of the best deals with a filling Tex Mex dinner buffet ($5 for students and $7 for staff/community.) If you don't want to eat, come later and dance for free.

Grupo Candela

This year  Grupo Candela from Madison returned to the stage. They didn't start off with any dance lessons but that didn't stop anybody from getting on the dance floor. 

We had a lot of calories to shake off from dinner and with Grupo Candela's latin beat it wasn't difficult to have dancing feet... for friends old and new, young and old from all over the world. As in any Latin affair it was for families and the balloons lying on the dance floor kept the littles occupied while their parents chatted and finished dinner.

Fun Lighting

  My dinner table didn't lack for conversation with a charming newlywed couple who travelled an hour to enjoy the evening,   a couple from Ecuador,   

Uruguayan friend Marta and her husband Bill and a grad philosophy/ biochem student from Minneapolis. 

a great evening for the university and its community ... 

Latin fun for all ages!
