Caption This...

* Your caption here... *

I didn't have anything "caption worthy" last week, but this week, I do. This photo was taken in the Plainpalais neighborhood of Geneva. You provide the caption.

The winner of the previous effort at captioning is Tennis Jazz of BC Capital (Victoria) Daily Photo. The runner up is Larry of Eeyore's Ramblin's. Thanks for contributing, folks!

Salsa!

Doing the mambo step : Barrio Latino : Plainpalais, Geneva, CH

So, in an ongoing effort to try new things, I'm taking dance classes and learning how to salsa. The class is a melange of folks from Africa, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Pakistan, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Switzerland, and the United States. In other words, a veritable U.N. of salsa-dancing-wanna-be's! The guy who teaches the class, Raf, is of Swiss-Portugese descent. His native language is French (I think), but he teaches the class in English with a smattering of Spanish thrown in. It's been a lot of fun, so far. Quite often, I have two left feet, which is unfortunate for the leads. Bottom line, though: I'm having fun!
