jazzfish: an open bottle of ether, and George conked out (Ether George)
[personal profile] jazzfish
In France for the second of two weeks with Steph's family. Five adults who do not believe in downtime and have packed ten pounds of touristing into a five-pound sack trip, two preteens who are good kids but still kids, and Steph's ten-year-old who will eat about six things, has absolutely zero concept of time, and gets intensely anxious. And me.

It has been a good if intense trip, and I have certainly had more France Experiences than I would have on my own. I am also stealing a few minutes this morning to journal before we rush off to The Next Thing and feeling guilty about it because folks are eating breakfast and I am being asocial.

Three(?) days in Paris doing the Catacombs, the Louvre, the Champs-Elysee, Sainte-Chappelle (Notre-Dame tickets were unobtainable) and Shakespeare & Co, then Versailles and down to Nantes, then Lascaux and Cap Blanc, through the Gorges du Tarn, and yesterday was Aigues-Mortes and the Camargue. At least half of these are nouns I would have no other referent for so I am hopeful I will have time to write them up more later before they fall entirely out of my head.

"Jazz Fish, a saxophone playing wanderer, finds himself in Mamboland at a critical phase in his life." --Howie Green, on his book Jazz Fish Zen

Yeah. That sounds about right.
