There's a problem with having a tango festival in the wilds of south-west England in early May: the weather. You just don't know what it's going to do. What do I pack? I have more stuff in my suitcase than I'd need for 2 weeks in the south of France, and I'll probably still be too hot or too cold, or both within five minutes of each other.
To be fair, the same would probably be true at any other time of year, so there is no point in complaining.
At least the dancing part is relatively straightforward, although I'm not convinced I have what I need even for that. My basic approach is to start with a maximum of two pairs of shoes, and have a mostly consistent colour theme. I'm also taking my running shoes, which are very bulky (Melina seems to manage, so I have no excuse not to).
Final adjustments in progress ...
Weather's been cool all week and Ive had a light fleece on ... but clear blue skies for most part.
