March 17th we celebrated Dustin’s b-day at relatively new b-burg spot Hope Lounge. Since it’s so new, and not even remotely Irish, we were pretty much able to take it over. It has potential as a place, provided they get new bartenders…
After midnight Dustin, Julia, Antonio and I went around the corner to salsa at Bar Rose, where they had a live music and a lively dance floor. The guys I danced with kept asking where I was from. One guy commented that I dance “like they do at home.” (Home turned out to be Columbia.) I’m going to take that as a huge compliment. I would highly recommend going to the next event there — besides the dancing & music Bar Rose has great wallpaper and the bartender is great.

I was surprised to get an annoucement in my inbox for their next event with the above photos. I don’t even remember them being taken, though I seem to be posing… (I’m on the far right, Julia is dancing in the middle photo.)

OMG, I’m so jealous! Sarah and I have been taking Salsa lessons, and there’s practically nowhere to go to dance, no clubs. We’re really having fun with it though, so next time we’re in NYC, guess where we’re going out with you guys!! Miss you!

Miss you guys too! We definitely need to go out dancing when you guys visit next. When will that be? Hrmm?
