How do I move a table within Pages on my iPad

Seems like it should be fairly easy as the directions just say to "highlight the top corner and drag it" - however, for the life of me this will not work. I have tried tapping, one finger, two finger etc. and it won't budge.

I'm using an iPad 3 with the newest version of pages... what I am trying to do is have two tables side by side on the page and this shouldn't be that difficult.

Thanks in advance for any help!
