And, there were plenty of ballroom dances.  Dancing the bachata, above it was Tito and Gloria.

Right next to them were Beth and the venerable Bert Andrade.

We gave a big welcome to Jojo.  It had been about a year since she was last at Thursday night at Point Point Joint.  Above, she's dancing a bachata with Tito. 

Edith's daughter Lala and hubby Art were there with their daughter Tassja and friend Lian.  I got to dance with them - in the photo above I was dancing Manila Swing with Tassja.     

   We had lots of fun dancing to "ballroom" dance songs like "Why" (swing), "Red Hot" (boogie - East Coast Swing), and "Ave Maria Lola" (salsa).  And, the women loved the line dances including:  "Carinito", "Mamita Mia", and "Jamaican Love".

DJ Mel Zaragoza and Susie (dancing a bachata above) are taking a two-month "vacation" in the Philippines, so we wished them a safe and fun trip.  You can see DJ Leo Dulce behind them. 

Lots of line dances, especially from 6pm - 7pm.  Above, around eight o'clock it was time for "Blurred Lines".  Esther is in front.

Later, line dancers were out dancing to "Conchita".  It was the first time that I saw that great cha cha being line danced.  It's getting tough to find a good recording that's not a line dance.

We welcomed Oscar for the first time in maybe a year at Thursday night at Point Point Joint.  He's dancing above with Penny to the merengue "Mares De Emocion".  There were some first-timers to Thursday night at Point Point Joint on the dance floor, too. 

And there was glamor on the dance floor.  Above it was Gloria and Florita dancing to a tango.

SPECIAL MOMENTS.  Above, Nene was celebrating her birthday.  Regarding a couple more serious or sad things, Nina led a tribute to the 3,000 or so victims of the Sept. 11, 2001 plane crashes on the East Coast, and Nina led the dancers in a moment of silent prayer for my Edith's oldest grandson who passed away on Aug. 29, 2014.
