Free champers at La Milonguita
which is our local milonga
on Fridays and Sundays
and we like it
and so does G.
who looks stunning and dances all night
Sunday we head to Feria de Mataderos: always a favourite
among the bargain hunters
and the music lovers
and the colour seekers
because it has
angels with wings.
Then there's the choripán
and the slightly crazy
and the friendly
and the sun comes out
and Carlos gets lost in my candy floss.
We join in the street dancing
with some lovely characters
who share a joke
and dance the chacarera.
I hope
that I
am still dancing
at his marvelous age.
Zamba with pañuelos
is beautiful
to watch.
They dance for joy
and so does Gabriella.
And this is why I live in Argentina...
