Dance Dance
Wherever you may be
And these school children certainly did that the day we watched their performance in Esparza near Puntarenas Costa Rica
They were so proud to show off their traditional costumes
as well as the dances they had learnt.
The three little ones in the front row were a laugh
There seemed to be a bit of rivalry between them before the performance and then once the music began it was all forgotten and we just saw their love of the dance. As you can see this love was shared with the older girls and boys

I danced in the morning when the world was young
I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun
I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth
At Bethlehem I had my birth
Dance, dance, wherever you may be
I am the lord of the dance, said he
And I lead you all, wherever you may be
And I lead you all in the dance, said he
Both of whom love/loved to dance 🙂
Listen here and enjoy the music and lyrics

Dance and the World Dances with you!
True or False??
What do you think?
I have never heard that song and enjoyed listening and reading the words. Especially appropriate in this Easter season. Yes those girls glaring at each other and then joining together in the dance was a wonderful catch on your part. All the pictures are fantastic.

I used to love to dance — ballet, folk dance, ballroom dance — you name it. Now, I don’t because I can no longer fit into my closed toe high heels. All I ever wear now are open toe sandals and rubber slippers!

Love to dance, it’s a great way to forget your worries for a little while.
