Saturday night on the town!

We had a fun evening on Saturday with Laura and Jose. Laura found out about this free concert in Ajijic, and since we're all about free we went. It was a youth string orchestra. They seemed very good, in my uneducated opinion, and the kids weren't too bored. Afterward, we ate dinner at this great taco stand. It was a sit down tent that served pork and beef tacos. We've had these at a few different places, but these were the best so far. I like pork with cilantro, mild salsa and lime juice. We also tried a drink made out of rice, flavored with sugar and cinnamon. Not my favorite.



After dinner we watched some Salsa Dancers from a local dance studio. They were all middle aged couples that probably would have preferred to wear less revealing costumes, but they also looked like they were having so much fun. We couldn't help but wonder if we would be willing to do the same in front of a big crowd at their age.

The kids all sat on this rock in front of the dancers, watching, playing and laughing. It was fun to watch. The next day, Milli and Jane wanted me to show them how to hold their hands to dance like the dancers. Charlie and Riley even got in on the act after a while. I'm so glad for this opportunity for them to see and experience things that they wouldn't otherwise.
