LOVE IS IN THE AIR AT THE CUPOLA!!!!

Got this e-mail from good friend Marie this morning. WOW! The Cupola is still alive and swinging for mid-week dancers. Not Hard Rock music but true Ballroom, Latin, and Swing danceable music. Spacious dance floor and air conditioned and admission is free.


Hello Frank:
I wonder if you would post the following announcement for us regarding Tuesday's social dance at the Cupola. As always, thank you so much for your support and consideration.

-------------------
LOVE IS IN THE AIR AT THE. CUPOLA!!!!


Lucas & Yanna welcome you to a romantic evening of dance at the Cupola!
Divino Ritmo's social dance this Tuesday, February 22, from 7-10p at the Cupola will be a celebration of love and lovers....

Cupola is located on the 2nd floor of the Honolulu Design Center, corner of Piikoi and Kapiolani, at 1250 Kapiolani Blvd.

Admission is FREE and it's open to the public! Pupus and drinks are available for purchase all evening.

You know the story: A beautiful woman meets a charming man. They eye each other shyly from across the room. He asks her to dance, or she asks him to dance. Three rumbas and two waltzes later, they walk off into the moon light hand-in-hand.

On the dance floor, love is a many splendored thing. But off the dance floor, life can be as equally romantic....Let us celebrate life's best romances at the Cupola this Tuesday!
