Caribbean Pearl

Alison Johnstone and her Perth team danced with the "pirate head scarf" in the recent Kuching Party that we attended and it certainly created the right mood  of the dance ( music from "Pirates of the Caribbean" )

So to give us the right ambiance to fully enjoy the dance and music, let's all bring a scarf/bandana to tie on the head & have fun. And maybe take a group photo?
