On the road again...

Well the Carmen tour has been on the road now since March 21st and we are on a roll. We are pros at what we call "hotel-camping". In an attempt to save money and to eat healthier, we have brought a rice cooker, a crock pot, burners, and a grill. We have eaten many lovely meals so far and all for a small amount of money! (Please don't tell the hotel workers, although it must be pretty obvious from the smells!)

As for the shows, it is always a challenge to sing in different halls, in different cities and sleeping in different places all the time, but so far so good! The biggest challenge has proved to be finding a place to practice! We found a place in Sault Ste Marie yesterday for two hours, but I fear that might have been a rare find...

I am working on Blondchen, Lady with a Hand Mirror *which I really need a piano for* and Serpetta all at once and studying your score is great, but I need some full-voiced singing at this point. I am thinking of sneaking down to the pool tomorrow and singing in there..

Two months until San Francisco as of today! wowsa!

Cheers from a plastic cup..
