Every year at about this time we slip out of town and head north for at least a week at the Montreal Jazz Festival. For the past two years one of our daughters has been able to join us - sometimes with her husband - and this year they'll be bringing my little man Louie! It is a time of walking the streets, engaging in our dreadful French, eating great French food and soaking up as much creative music as possible.
We are so grateful to John and Lauryn for taking on another week of Lucie care - she loves them dearly - and also to my sweet colleagues who cover for me during this retreat. For sure we'll be taking in shows that include Bobby McFerrin, a gypsy jazz rendition of Kurt Weill music and Zappa Plays Zappa (on my birthday of all things!)
Et commence notre voyage à Montréal...
