All-Scotlands 2013


Hello Everyone,

As I write this blog it is midnight on Friday going into Saturday.  It is 7:00 p.m. in New Jersey.  We have been up since 5 o’clock this morning.  Today was DANCE DAY!!!

For those of you who are familiar with us, then you know that these days are crazy busy.  To make it even more fabulously fun – lol, both girls danced on the same day.  Usually we get a split and they dance on back to back days, however, lately, we have had the same dance day for both girls.  It is crazy, busy, but it is fun. 

Erin started of the day at 7:00 a.m. and danced first in her group at 8:oo a.m. She danced again at 10:00 a.m. and again at 2:00 p.m.   Shannon danced at 4:00 p.m. and danced late in her group.  She danced again at 6:00 p.m. and into the night.  What a long day!!

In the end, it was fabulous!  Erin place 4th in her age group!  She received round medals in both her hard and soft shoe dances.  Erin was the top ranking American dancer in her age category.  Shannon placed 49th in her group! She received round medals as well.  Shannon was the 4th highest American dancer in her category.  

We spent our entire day at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow.  What a beautiful facility.  The competition was so well done, it ran smoothly and on time, and the organizers couldn’t have been more helpful.  The concert hall is home to all of Glasgow’s entertainment and would be a fabulous place to see a show or to see their orchestra perform. 

Tomorrow we start the next part of our trip.  We are heading to Edinburgh.  I am very excited to see this part of Scotland.  People say it is beautiful. 

Hear are some pictures of the dance day.

Stay well,
Sharon
