'Oh i heard the North American accent but im not very familiar with regional differences' Alavaro smiles at her again 'what is this Baja? ive never heard of the term' 'and by the way, that dress looks stuning on you, i wonder if theres a dance hall in this Hotel'Airbornexo wrote:The woman smiled at Alvaro, "since you have been kind enough to offer me a drink, let me repay the debt."
She gave him a strange look and then frowned slightly, as if musing something over in her mind; "my name is Ellie Knox, touring here in the city with my brother. We hail from Kansas, if you were wondering about the accent...thou the folk around here wouldn't know Baja from the Bronx!"

Prof. Eckhart, holding his brandy glass, approaches the table where Carl and Kirsten are sat. "May I join you?"

Re: 3: Trouble in Tripoli [all characters]
Ellie smiled again at Alvaro, "Baja? A little place out West where the sun shines all day long..." She looked into the middle distance for a moment, lost in her own thoughts. "You'll have to buy me another drink if you want a dance! I'll be sticking around for a while yet anyhow, I'm meeting my brother when he gets back from his errand."
Re: 3: Trouble in Tripoli [all characters]
Kirsten smiles at Eckhart. "Of course," she says, motioning to an empty seat. "Be my guest." She continues to follow the conversation between the Spaniard and the American woman with interest.

'Oh well' 'i hope mentioning your brother isint a subtile way to reject me' he winks at her 'come over hunny and let me introduce you the some other fellow explorers' Alvaro lifts his arm to escort Ellie to where Carl, Kirsten and Prof. Eckhart where sitting. 'And let me grab that drink for you' Alvaro grabs the Gin and Tonic from the bar walking slowly towards the group 'Hey people' 'let me introduce Ellie Knox, from Baja United States'

Re: 3: Trouble in Tripoli [all characters]
Prof. Eckhart pulls out a chair and sits down. He raises his brandy glass to Kirsten and Carl before taking a luxuriant sip of the cognac.
He nods a greeting to Alvaro and Ellie. "Ms. Knox, how do you do?"
Re: 3: Trouble in Tripoli [all characters]
"Pleased to meet a fellow American, Miss Knox," says Kirsten. "I'm Kirsten Hart, from Los Angeles, California." She turns briefly to Alvaro. "I couldn't help overhearing your conversation. Miss Knox said she's from Kansas, not Baja. Baja is actually in Mexico, not the United States. I should know, Baja is not too far from home for me and I've been there before. I do happen to know it from the Bronx." She grins, looking back at Ellie.

"Quite right Miss Hart, I often have a habit of talking too loud at the table. My mom would smack my wrists if she caught me just then!" Her smile appeared genuine for hearing a friendly accent. She bobbed a dainty and jaunty curtsy at the assembled people, "Please to meet y'all! Hope you don't mind me butting in like this, its always nice to hear a familiar language when so far from home. So are you all together?"

"Unlikely as it seems in these troubled times, yes, we are travelling together."
Prof. Eckhart asks Alvaro: "Mr. Uribe, have you mentioned to Ms. Knox that you are a wonderful dancer? I would very much like to watch you dance."
Re: 3: Trouble in Tripoli [all characters]
"Yes, we're all part of the same expedition," says Kirsten. "I was just remarking that this is the furthest I've ever traveled. Until now I've only been as far south as Mexico and as far north as Washington state, though I had been as far east as New York, so when the opportunity arose I felt I owed it to myself and couldn't wait to leave."

Re: 3: Trouble in Tripoli [all characters]
Prof. Eckhart claps his hands in delight. "I admire you, señor! We must have some music! I'll go ask the bartender and demand he finds a gramophone." As he stands he says to Kirsten: "Ms. Hart, you will honour me with a dance?"

Re: 3: Trouble in Tripoli [all characters]
Ellie clapped her hands together, "My brother, oh he had a errand to run in town. He's a little overdue but boys will be boys, he's probably got a gal on his arm! I think I could take a spin on the floor...that is if you think you can keep up." Her mischievous smile twinkled at Alvaro.
The bartender obliged at once when asked, pointing the Professor to a ornate and expensive looking gramophone on a side table. There was a stack of records neatly stacked on a shelf underneath the table-top.
OOC - Anyone take Art-Dance?

"I'd be delighted," says Kirsten, rising from the table and following Eckhart to the gramophone.

"I'd be delighted," says Kirsten
"I warn you now," Prof. Echart wags a mock-serious finger at Kirsten, "that I'm a slow dancer, and a bit of a 'toe-stepper.'"
The professor leafs through the gramaphone records."Which one, Alvaro?"

Percy asks for a drink to the barman. A rum.
