Lord Noel's Latino Love Launch

Whatto! Once more...

and "Welcome Aboard!"

Yes Lady J and myself were invited to attend an exclusive soiree on the Norfolk Broads 
together with lots of other gorgeous people...
...who are all devotees of the Salsa Dance method.
A beautiful afternoon meant we could don our party frocks and enjoy the balmy weather........


The Launch itself had space to sit, dance and drink...............
.....and lots of panoramic views of the lovely Countryside..........
So with a final smoke-break we wound our way to the gang plank............

Posing for a group photo before we embarked..........
Aren't we all simply Gorgeous!?............

Then we climbd on board and got our names ticked orf the guest list by the Captains mate.........


We were some of the first to get on - but you can see from the queue that this was a very popular trip!........

We settled oursleves down near the bar and very soon a queue formed there too!...

Once we had our drinks in hand we began enjoying the sedate cruise down the river........


The views were simply wonderful.......
Lots of wild life too!
I spotted these two birds! Har!!..............

And........... as the sun slowly sank........
the latin rhythms grew louder and the dancing began in earnest!............


At times the dancefloor got quite crowded...........
but that just added to the general 'Party' atmosphere..........

Our very good frinds are now proficient Salsa Artistes.........
so it was great to watch them 'doing their stuff'...

I saw this sign on the wall in the toilet....................

and thought it was quite good!!.........


But I must admit that by now the second bottle of red wine had kicked in and my judgement wasn't all that it might have been.................

My photographic skills also seemed to suffer a little too!!.........
Har! Har!

Although I actually feel that these shots capture the hustle and energy of the evening perfectly!...

As the evening drew to a close...........
we headed back to 'port'.........
and disembarked from the Latino Love Launch..............
...........all very happy...............


and headed back to Virtual Manor for something to eat and of course..............
...some more drink!!

Wallop!!
Best wishes from Lord Noel & Lady Jacqueline
