Yesterday I went back to the Central Park Sessions for Latin
Music Night. I met Travalon there, and we tried some of the different food
carts as a salsa band played on the main stage. Then a really good band played
in the beer tent while the next main stage act got ready. They were an
electronic music group from Mexico City, and we weren’t as crazy about their
music. Hockey Girl joined us, and she wasn’t too crazy about the electronic
music either, but after that band finished, the really good group in the beer
tent started up again. The headliner group was Cuban, and their music was
fantastic. Hockey Girl said she hadn’t had high expectations, but she really
loved them. Travalon was tired, so he headed home and stopped to get drunken
donuts (flavors: gin and juice, lavender margarita, Potosi Steamboat Shandy –
which is one of Travalon’s favorite beers – and vanilla bean old fashioned),
while Hockey Girl and I stayed to the end. She said how beautiful the park was in the dark with the vendors’ tents lit up. Finally we called it a night, and when I got
home, Travalon and I tried a couple of the donuts. We had the other two for
breakfast today. Wow, are they good! They were made by Dough Baby on State
Street. One of their flavors for August is a Key Lime donut, so we may have to
stop by before the month is over.
