sea and salsa

so i six-stepped, crumped and salsa-ed my way through monday and tuesday, then my body hurt and i had to stop. :-S yep tuesday i decided to try out a salsa night with some friends. i've done a bit before so the beginner's class was quite easy but very enjoyable. although i did have to 'be the man' (always a lack of males!) and got stabbed by some seriously big heels (crowded dance floor!). again it's something i see people do (dancing salsa, not stabbing people with their heels) and would so love to be good at it. but at least with salsa even if you know just a little bit you still feel like you can join in. and then we 'freestyled' to some latin-flavoured tunes, got those hips going and dodged away from crazy-waistcoat-man, and then spilled out onto the beach when we got too sweaty. love brighton! :-) in classic style amber and i then ran down to the sea (no small feat in heels i tell you!) and just as we caught our breath and paused to admire the moon and the waves and "this is so beautiful" was on our lips, a pebble-ridden wave came from nowhere and blasted past us, soaking us up to our thighs. HILARIOUS!

in other news, the fourth and final piece of sea urchin has finally departed from my foot, only about 2 months after it first entered that fateful day in Ibiza!!
