what a jazzy weekend...

In addition to having a really great weekend, I'm having a terrible time getting it up on the blog. It keeps disappearing. So I'm going to make short clips instead of doing it all in one. I've done this now 5 times.
Saturday morning we first took care of the rest of Father's day-taking Grandma and Grandpa Unrau out for breakfast-which they still love to do. He's starting to use the Botswana walking stick we gave him to use and now finally it's coming in handy. (At almost 90 one would think maybe...) But before we could leave for the big weekend, I needed to get my roots done-thanks to Leanne, who pampered me (again). THEN I was ready to spend the weekend listening to jazz at the Vancouver Jazz Festival. Late afternoon, Beth and Devin picked us up to go to Samba's for dinner where you can sample 13 kinds of meat, which the waiters bring non-stop if you let them. The yummy dinner was accompanied by Brazilian dancers, who visited lots of tables including ours. There was live music and I got sung to-Happy Birthday. After that it was straight to Granville Is. for a 3 hour jazz concert by Andy Bey plus trio of bass, drums and guitar-a Japanese, Norweign (?), and American. Andy is a black 66 year old with dreads. So I'll post some pics on the next entry so I don't lose all of this (again.)
