Interesting DJ Party

We came back from Street Fest and noticed that the car dropped us a short distance away from the lobby. Looked like the road was blocked a party was going on. People were dancing and singing with beer bottles and wine glasses in hand. There were two DJs doing everything DJs are supposed to do. Except there was no sound – let alone any blaring, heart thumping floor music.

Upon inspection we found out that the hotel was giving headphones to everybody. You could stream in any of the two DJs – that would be the reason for the red and green lights on the headphones. And of course dance to it.

Not sure who had more fun. The dancers lost in the music or the non dancers watching people flailing arms and gyrating silently!!

The mirth and merriment

The locals were dancing to the island music. The tourists were dancing to the island music. Even folks who could not dance – check out the guy in the wheelchair – pushed their way to the front to catch a piece of the action. Nobody danced as if nobody was watching like the gentleman in orange shirt. He is an elderly tourist and he was funny.

Apparently the local cricket team (which is in a winning spree I believe) was there too but I did not recognize them.
