| The tango dinner |
 |
| Scott and Joe with Omar |
Yesterday we said goodbye to one of our teachers, Omar. Omar taught two different groups at school and we have enjoyed having him as a teacher! He is from Colombia, and is leaving soon to spend time there, so we won't get to work with him our third week in Buenos Aires. Thanks, Omar!

| Ready for dinner! |
Last night, the immersion group had our classiest experience yet-- a tango dinner in the center of the city! The boys put on their shirts and ties and the girls wore their best dresses for the occasion. When we arrived, we were seated all together at two long tables, and were given many options for entrees, main course, and dessert! We got to practice some fine dining etiquette (which fork do I use first?) and we loved it! The food was excellent!

| The grand finale of the show |
As we ate our dessert, the show began with tango music played on piano, bass, accordion, and violin. Soon some dancers joined, and later soloists. The music was beautiful, and we even recognized some of the songs because of our dance lessons this week! The musicians and dancers walked us through the history of tango in Buenos Aires from its beginnings in the 1800s to today. All in all, it was an excellent evening!
