The Irony - Tango

Just returned from a Valentines Day party of sorts. While there we were entertained by a couple that performed several tango dances for the party goers with an explanation of the history of the dances.

The irony? We lived two years in Montevideo, Uruguay. Maybe not exactly home to the tango, but pretty much it's twin sister to its birthplace of Buenos Aires. Never once saw a tango show and never once went "across the river" to Buenos Aires!

We come halfway across the world and we see a tango dance performed by a diplomatic couple that was stationed in Buenos Aires.
