Put on your Red Shoes and Dance!

Out and about early this morning and caught an impromptu music session given by the Guadeloupians. A few drinks in the bar, a bunyette ( local deep fried pastry) making demonstration given by the local baker, an organised meal in the square followed by the carnaval troupe strutting its stuff as the rest of us followed behind trying to look rhythmic.... tired or what at the end of it all!
The problem is that when you're in too many associations, you find yourself getting involved in lots of things. This evening it was the turn of the village's twinning association to serve up the meal so Christian and I rolled up our sleeves and did our bit. How I chuckled to think of our visitors ancestors having a good laugh at the glorious irony of it all!
