April and Paris

It’s official! Terri and I just bought our plane tickets to go and visit April (my sister) in France in April (the month). We’ll spend a few days in Paris, and then TGV down to Monaco, and catch her in the show she’ll be doing at the time, Oeil Pour Oeil (wacky Flash site warning). April was here last week, doing a guest appearance at Boston Ballet, and looking very cool. The new gig not being strictly classical, she gets to be a little more funky appearance-wise. Anyway, we worked out the times with her while she was here, and sealed the deal tonight.

The perverse thing is that we may actually end up seeing yet another Interpol show in Paris. We actually have sort of a knack for choosing international vacation dates & locations that coincide with shows we want to see. We saw Tortoise & Isotope 217 in London in 1998, and Stereolab in Barcelona for our honeymoon.

Anyway, hopefully Simon & Frances will forgive that we haven’t been to Houston to visit them yet, but my time off is finite, and I’ve never been to France (and once April got set up in her apartment, they didn’t waste much time in heading to Monaco themselves, either…).
