Dear Tango List:
Registration for the San Miguel de Allende TOPAZ TANGO event from July 2-7
needs to be completed by MAY 17!
Please do not miss the opportunity to dance and learn from EDUARDO SAUCEDO,
a magnificent teacher and choreographer, and a wonderful friend to many of
us in Mexico. We always have a fabulous time on these trips in Mexico, and
this one will include a Mexican cooking class and tequila tasting.
San Miguel offers wonderful shopping for arts, crafts, jewelry, shoes, home
decorations; just about anything you can imagine desiring from the best of
Mexico! Romantic restaurants with great food are everywhere, and you can
never get enough of the detailed colonial architecture and palette of colors
that are on every cobblestoned street.
Un abrazo,
Christina
