And then 'Suavemente' came on.

Today was a good day. I'm really taking advantage of this siesta thing. More then the actual people here I fear.

 Well every Friday evenings the YSA's (Young Single Adults) in the church get together for a lesson/activity. I arrived late and we were discussing a few bible stories. Then afterwards we sang to our friend Rúben because his birthday is this Monday. And then out of no where the kitched section opened and they proceeded to bring out delicious food! Including pizza, almost American-like, tapas, cheetos and candy. Then they turned on the music. Bump the tunes. People start dancing, Latin-spanish-like of course. I moved my hips a bit, but was shy.

And then Suavemente came on.

For anyone that wants to hear, this is the song: Suavemente-Elvis Crespo

And I got up and started dancing in the middle of the room because...how can I not? I LOVE THIS SONG. It's kind of a family theme song and I don't hear it out very often. It was so great. From about 1030-midnight we were all eating, dancing and socializing. This also included an "Erica's music" section where I showed them a little taste of what I like (and I mean a little, my ipod is so outdated). This consisted of some Gramatik and then-judging on their need to dance- I put on some oldschool Outkast and JT. I can't wait till I somehow get Cat Daddy/Dougie/Daftpunk/Discovery on my ipod and can show them realll dance moves. ;)

Afterwards, they asked me if I wanted to go to a discoteca. Well yes of course. So we went to a barro/discoteca for the next two and a half hours and I got to get all this Latin dancing out of my system! For real...I love dancing, and I love Latin dancing. It was so great! I danced with some chicos y chicas in our group and then one stranger. Wooh! My first club in Spain! Its kind of funny that I've only been to clubs outside the US, right? (Guatemala '07). Anyway, it was really great.
