Ball review. (Slots 1, 4, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12.) San Diego ball was in six days, so this was reinforcing dances skipped or found weak during the previous night's practice.
Slots 6 and 7 were testing out new dances. "To Dance Divine" got really favorable feedback from a lot of people, despite that I'd only included it as a set-up dance for "Punch Bowl". "Jubilation" felt like a good dance in the rare two-couple-set dance category.
