HAVING FUN.  Maria & Lisa were 1st-timers to Eastlake Thursdays.  Above, they danced outside the clubhouse.



LOVELY LADIES BY THE LAKE.  As usual, there were numerous photo sessions by the lake.  Above was one featuring first-timer Adelle (a costume prize winner), Nora, Nedy and Eden (who was another prize winner).

P.S. Other Notes: (1) These are really fun ballroom and line dance parties.  This is Thursday night dancing in San Diego.  While the dancing is continuous, there are dancers who are happy to give free dance one-on-one lessons during the dances, in case you don't know the steps of a particular dance.  Hmmm - I bet the simultaneous instructions while others are dancing make these, for example, the best Thursday night dance in San Diego.

P.S. Other Notes: (1) These are really fun ballroom and line dance parties.  This is Thursday night dancing in San Diego.  While the dancing is continuous, there are dancers who are happy to give free dance one-on-one lessons during the dances, in case you don't know the steps of a particular dance.  Hmmm - I bet the simultaneous instructions while others are dancing make these, for example, the best free line dance lessons in San Diego.
