these goldfish swam above our delicious grilled dinner...
Back to our two days off...luckily for us, there was no room anywhere else for us but Biarritz. A seaside town in France, up by the border of Spain, it was a slice of beauty, with French Mexican food & their version of margaritas... and lovely people. 
We whirled around the resort and spent our euros with no regrets. Our hotel, Tonic, was seated next door to a pub with a boat theme, delicious pizza & the boys were all in love with the saucy French waitresses. 
Walked the beach at night and i slept with my window open, hearing the surf hit the shore over & over. put me into a deep deep sleep.
The next day we found little treasures in vintage shops, but oh so expensive...i mostly window shopped & day-dreamed. Resting up for the next bout of shows... Spain, I was so sorry not to have more time in your borders. Next time.
after that we went on to do another co-headliner with NIN in Italy, we even shared the production office with them, it was a cozy little family. The Trail of the Dead guys were there too, **shouting out to Leroy! The convergence of the crews was such a blast...
today we have a show day in Zagreb, Croatia....former Yugoslavia. Our production office looks like a true war room, we have a conference table that is a big wooden circle & we are on the phones constantly today, sorting out every little detail that can go wrong on this final four in a row of shows...I will download photos that I took next post, Zagreb, a truly amazing city, with millions of beautiful people and skies of electric blue. This morning though, show day, i woke to pouring rain in the hotel...Tomorrow Serbia, and we lose our tour buses. Charter plane to Athens and then Istanbul and then a ka-billion hour flight home...home sweet home...

Love window shopping with you! I enjoy being a virtual tourist, especially since I'm back in the big house, the hospital which makes me feel like I'm incarcerated, like a princess lock in a tower. My doctor thinks I may have stomache cancer but think he's over reacting. Still, I here with only white walls to look at so I really enjoy looking at your blog photos of your adventures. Too bad you didn't get a photo of the saucy French waitress. Have a fun trip and a safe trip home. Lots of love!
Dah-link, your travels sound so fabulous. I'm glad to see that you're having such a time.
please be well YG, and take it easy!
i guess the waitresses were not what was interesting to me...!
Danth, i hope you are well, and will be home soon....
oxoxox
Pouring rain IN the hotel ?
I hope it wasn't that bad...
Thanks Miss Kitty Cat for the kind words! I got good news from my doctor that I don't have stomache cancer but a bleeding ulcer the size of a Hummer! Pass the word your your Literary Boss, I told him that I had put in my Will that when i die the C.B.L.D.F. will get a BIG chunk of cash! But it appears Heaven can wait. I pray you have a safe jounrey home beautiful woman! By the way, who is watching Batman while you're gone? Hugs for a still ill and thin (I can't eat whole food for three more days!) Yoga Gal
Miss Cat: Welcome home, the oddest thing happens when I try to e-mail you , I get a message saying BlackBerry didn't pick up something like that. Well, hope you're getting some rest after being on the road so long. Still in the hospital and going bananas!
