Petäyksen kesäleiri/ Petäys Tango summer camp

The biggest annual tango argentino -weekend in Finland was hold in Petäys, southern Finland. Two couples outside Finland was invited, Juan and Graciana from Argentina (living in Portugal) and our friends from Austria, Martin and Claudia. For once the weather was far too good for a tangocamp, hot and shiny, everybody should have been outside...
On the first night (on Thursday) Maria was at her best in the late nite alternative milonga. Pasi played traditional until midnight and then Maria continued on other program. It worked really nice.
We had a pleasure of meeting Tangueros Polares first in a concert on Friday evening and in milonga on Saturday. What a great quarteto! They were able to play very variable dance music that satisfied all of the milongueros! As a surprise act, they came back at 4 a.m. and played another set for us few who were still dancing! YOU should have been there!!!
Tangueros Polares y amigos at 5.30a.m.
