Salsa dancing in Sarasota

In a previous post, I blogged about salsa dancing in Sarasota.

This is the name of the place that I was referring to:

Tropicana de Havana
5911 Fruitville Rd.
Sarasota, FL 34232 USA

It looks like a great place from the outside, as I drove by it the other day.  I hope to make it there shortly for a night of salsa dancing.
