The plan was to assemble more than 852 harmonica-ists and play "When the Saints Go Marchin' In." Haven't yet heard if they were successful. Perhaps Zed will know and tell us.

We had to leave so couldn't join in. I got to dance the tango (badly,) swing (not at all badly if I do say so myself) and contra (oooh, my inner ear is out of shape, must practice spinning). We watched flamenco and kids blowing bubbles and digereedo and marimba players while eating African food and huge strawberry shortcakes. Went to workshops on old time fiddling and Swedish accordian playing and taught some friends to do a Cajun twostep. Not bad for $5 per day. See you next year??
