Subject: NA-W:EXOTIC TANGO FARE
For those of you desiring these great trips with Fabian Salas and El Indio in
Mexico and Guatemala, a fare was purchased yesterday Albuquerque/Mexico City
for $420 through American airlines. I HAVE CONTACTS OF CONSOLIDATORS for
great fares. DENVER/MEXICO CITY is less. DENVER/LEON is the best route. Get
your ticket early!! You still have time to get $50 discount for tango week!

Subject: MISC: San Francisco milonga advice June 30 - July 4
Help!
There is a ton of internet info to wade through re: SF Bay Area tango. I am
overwhelmed on which milongas to attend. Any recommendations for not to
miss milongas would be greatly appreciated.
I will be in town June 30, this Friday - July 4th.
Any and all recommendations are encouraged. Specific reasons why you liked
a particular place are helpful, too. Will be staying near Union Square, no
car.
Any salsero/as? I need that info too.
Thanks a million!
