American Exports

This weekend I went into Milton Keynes to pick up some pictures. As I walked into the mall, I heard faint music. I thought to myself, no it couldn't be. But as the music grew louder and I turned the corner all my fears were confirmed. In a large courtyard reserved for diplays and demonstrations a large group of people were learning to 2-step. Cowboy boots and hats abounded. It was all too much for me, and I couldn't help laughing and shaking my head. Of all the things to export to the world... Ah..

I wish I'd had a camera.
