A Mexican Thanksgiving!

We had a great time dancing at La Bodega on Thanksgiving night. Ana learned the cha-cha from Steve; Karen got a great lesson in swing dancing from Rod; and the whole group got up and boogied to the song, Mambo #5, taught by Ray, Marie and our wonderful entertainer that night, Ricardo.

Even non-Focus participants decided to join the fun! That happens a lot when you have a group as congenial as the one that just left...everybody wants to have a part in the merriment! It really was a great group, and we know a lot of lasting friendships were made. Our final night was on the day of the American Thanksgiving, and the staff at La Bodega did us proud.

We had a traditional turkey dinner with all the trimmings, including stuffing and cranberry sauce. Great dancing, great conversation, traditional food and lively guests…some of whom still had the energy to go to the Plaza and watch the fireworks at the end of the daily fiesta. Our group was lucky enough to be here for the San Andres fiesta…the patron saint of Ajijic, whose party lasts for nine days!

A wonderful time was had by all.
