A Night Out

Last night we went to see a concert with Zoe, Aurelie, Zoe's cousin and another one of her friends, Katarina.

Broken Social Scene is a Canadian band that Zoe knew from Canada. It was a great show. I'm not usually up for live music shows, but it's nice to get out of the house, and this concert was a pleasant surprise. The group is made up of musicians who all play in different bands. Its quite an assortment on stage, including a violin, three trumpeters, and even a trombone at one point. I wish I had more constructive or descriptive things to say about it, but it was a throroughly enjoyable mix of music styles. A very pleasant evening.

I also want to say hi to Jing and Katie, two more friends who are reading the blog. We miss you guys! And Katie, Zoe agrees that it would be a great idea if the guys did a show over here....

Tonight we go to another friends house for dinner (same place as last Saturday. Only in France do you plan your next dinner get together as soon as the meal is finished). Erik volunteered us for dessert duty, but due to a severe lack of basic baking tools, and time, I'm off to the patisserie to choose something delicious to share.

Tomorrow Erik's sister Karina arrives! We'll be waiting for her bright eyed and bushy tailed at the airport tomorrow morning.
