Notes:
— Ferris Wheel is done in the usual way with those facing towards another couple moving forward and doing a Wheel and Deal with them. Couples who are facing out at the end should do the out-facing part of Ferris Wheel.
— Slow Square Thru can be danced as “1, 2, cha, cha, cha” for each side of the square.
