We have all returned to our respective homes after a fantastic week of playing music and dancing at Pennsic:) This was a wonderfully low-key vacation for me with lots of opportunities to play music, but very few obligations: all play and no work! Our few pre-scheduled events were wonderful, as always- the Cure Salee was a high energy event, crammed together on stage with lots of friends, although this year playing music on the way to the battlefield might have been my favorite (Bacon Ciao! has been stuck in my head for days).

If you have Pennsic pictures related to Khafif or music/bellydance/middle eastern events, please feel free to post them. I was so excited this year just to *do* everything, that I didn't bring the camera out of the tent once to stop and take pictures.

Khafif will be seen all over the place in the next few weeks (we'll post a schedule soon), but we're also preparing for our Halloween Hafla at Your Inner Vagabond, on Friday, October 31st, so mark it in your calendars!
