So yesterday part of our dance group went to the village of Areia Branca,near Peniche,to dance for young people with learning disabilities.They normally live at the AFID house close to Lisbon (I was very impressed by the facities there,even if I only saw it from the outside),but now they were staying 2 weeks in Areia Branca for the summer hollidays.
We performed outside,in the basketball field but we could hardly hear the music because they did not have any amplifiers.So we ( actually,Pedro,mostly) had to sing and dance at the same time.Close to the end of the samba,there is a part in the choreography where we rush towards the public and there I was,looking at the stars like J.said and then suddenly I just toppled over.Everybady heard a big thud and I was on the ground,on my hands and knees.I look back and there is this kid with a helmet lying on the ground behind me.We were later told that he has trouble with balance and keeps falling,hence the helmet.Pedro helped me get up and held for a while during the end of the dance.My left knee was hurt pretty badly and I could hardly stand.Still I managed to somehow finish the dance and leave with a bow and a smile.
Luckily nothing was broken and I felt better after having put some ice.Afterwards we were all joking and J.was saying that she did not know wether to laugh or to cry because I literally flew.Apparently I was completely straight in the air,Superwoman like.
