    No doubt Mabel knew she'd be asked to dance as she had tap shoes on. And she dances like a pro, her feet have a mind of their own showing a lifetime of training and performing. But afterwards she looked to be under duress, I think she threw herself into that dance with exuberance and it took its toll. Her gentleman Russian partner looks to take notice, shows concern repeatedly, as she makes slow adjustments to come back into her all in rejoining the game. It is a bit worrisome to watch her, I want to offer her a chair to sit down. Her performance was delightful and took her back to when she was young, but not without the price to pay afterwards. I hope she slept well that night.

    @519djw6 9 лет назад +5

    I have one and a half comments regarding Vladimir Babishvili, he was neither a Russian nor a Slav. The Georgians are a a non-Slavic people living in the Caucasus. They were conquered and annexed into the Russian Empire in the 19th century. (Joseph Stalin himself was a Georgian whose real last name was Dzhugashvili, and he was never entirely at home with the Russian language.) In addition, I think most Georgians would take exception to their country being called a part of "Asia."
