(photos)Sunday October Salsa Fest 5 – Buena Vista – Moro and Alegria

Part 2 of double day post. Moro and Alegria from the Buena Vista Cuban Academy. Moro and Alegria’s performance takes the cake, words cant explain it, you simply have to see it to believe it. Pictures below:-

This is the first time I have seen Moro and Alegria perform and I was skeptical at first. I wasnt sure what style of dance they were doing and how I should line up my shots. Compared to the first 4 shows, I have either seen the routine before or seen them dance multiple times which made shooting easy.

Shooting Moro and Alegrio was ALOT of fun! Their performance factor is amazing to say the least with non-stop crowd teasers of increasingly insane moves. Suffice to say, shooting them was a breeze.

The last move of the routine, keeping the best for last…

It was certainly an eye opener to watch Moro and Alegria perform with their spot on musicality and crowd pleasers. I cant wait to see them again!

Thats the last set of photos from the October Salsa Fest. The next dance event post will feature the Brisbane Latin Christmas Party hosted by Smooth Latin Energy Steps. Follow these links to see the other posts during the October Salsa Fest:-

I have been very slack from over the past week training for the performances(video will be up soon!) and recovering. To make it up, Im going to do a double post day to complete the October Salsa Fest series. First off, I have Neil and Mary from Latin Dance Australia.

I got the chance to dance with Mary on Friday and that had got to be one of the best dances I have ever had.

I am really looking forward to more dances with her in the future, particularly during the Sydney Salsa Congress in January!

Foot festish vampire from Hong Kong and Min Wye’s whereabouts

Foot fetish vampire from Hong Kong

I have been alone in the office for a couple of weeks and just today, we have been returned to being full staffed. before I go any further, the title is not self-explanatory….I have not seen or been bitten by a foot fetish vampire from Hong Kong. However, Sam might have.

Remnants of being blood sucked.

Remnants of being blood sucked.

Thats pretty gross…i know =/ but I have to alert the world of a potential vampire who has a fetish for feet. The story goes like this, while Sam was in Hong Kong, he was bitten by a mysterious entity which left two puncture marks on his feet.

After returning from Hong Kong, the area around the bite mark started to grow and no doctors could identify the problem! Luckily, Sam is still alive and the swelling as reduced and the doctors are still clueless.

The only explanation? A vampire with a foot fetish….from Hong Kong.

Min Wye’s whereabouts
On a totally different note, I admit that I have been mysteriously missing for the past couple of days from my blog and that is the result of having to practice for 2 performances. If you want to see it, you will have to either attend the gala. Details:-
