<\/a><\/p>\nStreet entertainers…<\/p>\n
Sand sculptors…<\/p>\n I also drove to Quebec City to sample some of its festivities. After all, it is celebrating its 400th anniversary. One of the attractions is called \u201cThe Image Mill\u201d. It is a forty-minute visual and audio production projected against the grain silos in the Port of Qu\u00e9bec. This huge concrete structure becomes the screen and the narrator that tells the tale of Qu\u00e9bec City\u2019s 400 years of history.<\/p>\n http:\/\/lacaserne.net\/index2.php\/other_projects<\/a><\/p>\n It was impossible to photograph, but definitely worth the trip!<\/p>\n One stop I was able to shoot is the Green roof created over the Civilization Museum. Someone had the clever idea to use the outside walls and the roof as display for unusual gardening experiments. It was both peaceful and stimulating.<\/p>\n And when you got to the top…you were reminded of where you are: in the old port, with its beautiful stone houses…<\/p>\n And again I got to sample the sunsets of le Portage, near Rivi\u00e8re du Loup.<\/p>\n Back in town I attended my first ever rock concert (I hope that\u2019s what they are called\u2026. I am quite the novice in popular music). I went to see Crosby, Stills and Nash. I had bought the tickets as a gift but since the recipient bailed I decided to keep them for myself. I was feeling awkward, being a distant fan but not that familair with their music… It was a bit of a shock when they got on stage, to see these white haired guys, but hey! So what? Most of the audience was in the same age group… I did not entertain a lot this summer but I did get to try a new recipe for red tuna tartare, with diced mangoes, ginger, sesame seeds served with a vinaigrette made of grape seed oil, wasabi, sesame oil, mirin, lime juice and tabasco…I served it in martini glasses…<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\nThe giant animated mascots, and the parades that managed to weave their way through the storms…<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nDavid Crosby looks the oldest (and he is by one year) with his long white hair and mustache his protruding belly and mostly because he does not move much. He did make a few humorous comments about Canadian politics.
\nStephen Stills looks (and he is) the youngest because he still has brown hair. He was the most discrete of the three although he did take front stage for an amazing guitar jam that made him shine.
\nThe star for me was Graham Nash a sexy 66 year old who still moves like a young man and plays the guitar as if he was making love.
\nIt was a great show (unfortunately hard to photograph) and I DID know more tunes than I thought. They kept changing guitars, I wish I knew more about that and their various sounds…<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
