> i RECEIVED THIS BEAUTIFUL ELEGANT LETTER WHICH IS FOR ALL TO READ  
> AND I APLOGIZE FOR AN ERROR IN AN EARLIER EMAIL

DANCED BOTH THURSDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHTS AND QUALIFIED AS ONE OF THE 40  
FINALIST COUPLES!! True Champions.
> I THANK YOU BOTH DEEPLY FOR BEING SUCH AMAZING REPRESENTATIVES!!
GAYATRI - CELEBRATE TANGO

> To all of our friends and supporters,
>
> It is with a deep gratefulness for your support and yet a  
> bittersweet sadness that I must report to you all that we did not,  
> alas, enter into the greater promised land as victors in the Tango  
> Salon championships here in Buenos Aires. Cyrena and I did our best  
> to represent Tango in NYC and in the US in the finals held here  
> today but fell short of the image the judges felt best represented  
> their criteria for highest honors this year. The 1st Place  
> Championship was awarded to a young wonderful couple from Buenos  
> Aires while another 7 of the remaining 10 victors were also from  
> Tango's capital. A beautiful couple from Italy also were awarded  
> honors among the top 10. It was a very strong group of victors very  
> deserving of their place in this year's competition.
>
> This has been a wonderful and exciting experience and I thank you  
> all for your gracious and ever-present support. Without your sell- 
> wishes, emails, phone calls, crossed fingers, prayers and boundless  
> submission of positive energy this would not have been at all the  
> experience it has turned out to be. I very much appreciate your  
> presence along with us through these events, your support and  
> encouragement in NY and your continued gifts of friendship wherever  
> we have been. With all of that we were able to make it to these  
> finals which I believe has been a significant accomplishment.
>
> Hopefully next year we can arrive here again to give it another try  
> and to do even better. With your support and encouragement, I'm  
> sure either Cyrena and I or some other deserving couple will be  
> given an equal opportunity to come represent our country and Tango  
> in the US at this important event.
>
> Again, to all of you, my deepest and fondess thanks and well wishes  
> for a happy future. If you dance, may you continue to Tango to your  
> hearts content. If you don't, may you continue to find joy in all  
> your endeavors.
>
> With much love and gratitude,
> -Eduardo Goytia and Cyrena Drusine
> 2007 US National Champion - Tango Salon
