As usual, there were plenty of line dances, including non-stop from 6 to 7pm. Above, it was the delightful "Somethin Stupid" with Nora and Marie in front.
Of course, we guys preferred the ballroom dances. We gave a big "welcome back to Point Point" greeting to Mel (not the DJ, but the lady), whose previous Thursday night at Point Point was over a year ago. Above, she was dancing with Gino to the hustle "TSOP".
And, Rima and Ruben enjoyed dancing to the merengue "Linda Eh".
A highlight of the night was a birthday party for Tito. Above he's blowing out the candles on the birthday cake while he was surrounded by some of his admirers.
A little later Elsie and Ping looked very happy dancing to the bachata "Calma - No Me Entendio".
And, then Ly and the busy Ruben shared the floor with line dancers, while they enjoyed dancing the hustle or Manila Swing to "Uptown Funk".
Speaking of line dancers, the longtime favorite "Cupid Shuffle" had the dancers dancing even at closing time. Ly, Edith and Elsie were in front on the photo above.

There were many line dances, including non-stop from 6 to 7pm. Above, it was "Bachata Risma" with Heidi, Nene and Lou in front. And Romy in white singing along to "borracho y loco" and "te amo siempre".
Ly & Jerry also looked good also dancing to the cumbia.
Romy Maraya and Eva (in front above) had the best Hawaiian attire. Romy, backed by a bevy of beauties, put on a great HAWAIIAN NIGHT show with songs like "Igiling Giling" and "Let's Groove Tonight".
The samba "Bailando" got several dancers up, including Ping and Elsie above.
There were many first-timers, including Rosie who danced above with Lito.
At the same time, DJ Nickie and Reyllen were also dancing to the samba "Bailando".
Lulu and Esta, dancing stars of the RMX Dance Group, performed a very nice dance for us. Esta and Lulu brought some other RMX dancers to Point Point for the first time. Esta was another Hawaiian attire prize winner.
We celebrated Lydia's birthday. Lydia, the owner-manager of Point Point Joint, is looking forward to retirement in about a month.
The last 30 minutes were busy. Line dances included "Carinito" above, with Ping and Nora in front.
Above, Nina announced Cely as the WINNER of a MICROWAVE OVEN donated by Nick Enriquez! Cely was one of two winning raffle ticket holders of those who bought Point Point's $10 dinner special.
Nick and Eden also donated the Grand Prize, a MINI REFRIGERATOR, won by Esther(Esther's in the green & pink dress)! Someone called Esther back to Point Point after her raffle ticket was drawn as the winning ticket.
The ladies' enthusiasm was at full volume as they sang along to the he-did-her-wrong song "Bakit Pa". Just after the photo was snapped, DJ Bing brought over microphones so everyone could hear their voices.
After closing time, most of the lingering HAWAIIAN NIGHT dancers huddled for a group photo. It's a fun dance party most every Thursday night at Point Point Joint with line dances and ballroom dances like swing including Manila Swing (also known as 4-count hustle or Philippine swing or Filipino swing), cha cha, night club 2-step, tango and much much more.
