Swimming and Sushi on a Scorching Summers Day!

Organiser - Anna
Who? - Helen, Anna, Sarah, Nikki, Fleur, Colette.
When? - 2nd July 2009
Where? - Swimming at Holborn Oasis Outdoor Pool and Sushi at Sushi Hiroba.
How Much? - £3.90 swim + £17.00 per head for sushi and wine.

"It was surprising to find out that there was an outdoor pool right in the centre of London. Just on High Holborn, a stones throw from Covent Garden and Oxford Street - Holborn Oasis Centre is centrally placed. With outside temperatures topping 29 degrees, we were all really looking forward to a cool swim. The Sports Centre is a little dated and the changing rooms leave much to be desired, but none of us minded that! It was quite crowded when we were there, with the hot weather tempting people in. There wasn't much room for swimming, so inevitably more talking that swimming was done!
Next on to Sushi Hiroba, some of us sushi veterans and others trying it for the first time. It was a great meal and the house white wine was surprisingly refreshing!"

When? - 26th May 2009
Where? - Bale De Rua - Brazilian dance at the Barbican Theatre.
How Much? - £12.00 ticket

With a pulsating mix of hip-hop, African dance, samba and capoeira, Balé de Rua burst onto the Barbican stage following their triumphant performance at the 2008 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Hailing from the streets of Brazil, this adrenalin fuelled cast of 15 men and 1 woman deliver a high
pressure performance celebrating life, love and all things Brazilian.

A lively backdrop of percussion sets the scene for this inspiring event displaying the power of the Brazilian people. Exhilarating break-dancing and breathless body movements ensure this dynamic and engaging street ballet will have you dancing in your seats.

"It was a really fun evening, I had never been to anything like this before and it really uplifted our moods. They really got the crowd going and it wasn't long before people were dancing in their seats!!"
