Another spin at the NY Salsa Congress 2007

The 2007 NY Salsa Congress (NYSC) was just a blur of a weekend. Now that I've had some sleep and enough caffiene to restart my brain, that's still really the only way to describe it.

 

Arriving on Thursday night at the Hilton at 12:45 AM (a little late for the band, but plenty of time with the DJ), I knew I was in the right place. The room was packed with hundereds of the hard core "just love to dance" people like me alongside many of the best dancers, performers and instructors on the planet! Everywhere I looked, people were throwing out amazing stuff -- and this was just the warm up night. Two and a half hours later, I dragged myself out of there vowing to pace myself better -- my body couldn't really take three more days and nights of this... Stopping in a local deli for dinner afterward, I was off to the hotel "early" at 3:30 AM.
