My first youtube posting! Here's Maia and Zhanna dancing along to Takfarinas at Summerstage. And it was so easy - no wonder youtube is as popular as it is.
Anyway, the music was great - I've liked rai since I first heard it in Tunisia almost 20 years ago, and this was something related, which the program calls yal... Takfarinas' style is "a blend of Kabylian folk, French pop, flamenco, reggae and funk."
Summerstage was filled with young people dancing, drinking, and checking the scene out. I felt old. But we had a great time dancing, sweating (it was torrid), and in Maia's case, jumping, leaping, sprinting, and I don't know what else!

Rollerblading Newbies

After all those hours at Modell's trying out rollerblades, it was finally time to put them on and give them a try! We didn't do too badly.
Staying true to form, Paul went out and skated as fast as he could around and around, and I went back and forth in front of the benches until I could sort of skate, slowly but without falling. Maia needs a little more practice but she was willing to give it a shot!
Delia, who tried out her new spiffy blades, took these photos plus many videos, which I'll try and post on YouTube.
