Trip 1- 1st Show!!!!

Last night we had the opening ceremony with all the other countries. It was our best night yet and it was so much fun to see the other countries dance. We danced down a red carpet to our stage and felt like movie stars the whole night! Being on stage and looking at the audience gave every single dance a special moment that they will cherish forever. As we performed step about everyone was filled with a rush of excitement. it was such a great feeling. After we danced we went out into the audience and did a paso doble with children. Sarah and I had so much fun we didn't even know what to do with ourselves. After the show Ellen and Michelle let us go to a reception with all the festival dancers. It was AMAZING! We danced the night away and made many new friends. Sarah and I and the rest of our trip learned how to dance like Russians and it was really intense. I even learned a Slavic "Curran event" Our first show set us off to a good start and we are looking forward to having more fun in Spain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your Truly,
Sarah Leonard and Erin Gentile :)
