No longer in Kenya (aaah!) but still a Kenyan at heart...

The weekend.

Spent the nicest weekend with my hubby and some friends, and caught up with a few 'cultural' items while at it. Not that I'm such a culture vulture, but do enjoy a good show now and again. Well to be completely honest, can you see a concert as a cultular event? Dunno...

We went to the show of Andre Swartz on Saturday evening at the Carousel. He's ok, not the greatest, but ok, and he's past his prime. (Sorry Andre!). Then, on sunday evening we went to the Celine Dion Concert at Loftus! WOW, that was amazing! If y'all get the chance to go and see her new concert tour - Taking Chances, make the effort and pay the money! I'm not the biggest Celine fan, but this was truly amazing. She has such a pressence on the stage and her voice is truly amazing.

A lot of the time when you get to see artist perform on stage they tend to sound a little different from when you listen to them on your home or car stereo - it's understandable, a studio recording is always going to sound a little clearer or more 'composed', but she sounds as clear as a bell on that stage, and her two hour performance FLEW by! Truly worth it...

Sitting here with a small mountain of work and too much to do, so better get back to it.

Hope y'all have a pretty day now.

TTFN
