Time goes so fast... I can not believe it's the weekend again. Not only that, but we are pretty much fully booked until the end of the month. We will be going to Amsterdam twice this weekend, and things seem to be moving, happening. Friends are getting engaged, a bunch of friends are leaving the country, and there are so many expositions, concerts, things to do (we might not be able to do everything we want, oh, life). In case you didn't know, Manu Chao will be giving a free concert in Rotterdam tomorrow (June 15) within the Rotterdam Unlimited festival. If you are in Paris (or fancy a weekend trip), these are the last days of the photography exposition: "La valise mexicaine" at the Musée d'art et d'histoire du judaïsme. This exposition showcases the recently found negatives from Robert Capa, Gerda Taro and Chim. They were pioneers in war photography, and brought light to what was happening during the Spanish Civil war. It would not be an exaggeration to say they revolutionized the way photojournalism was made.The history of the lost mexican suitcase is fascinating in itself. The exhibit will be in Paris until June 30. What are you up to?
Oh, sounds exciting!
ReplyDeleteMy weekend will be interesting. Last couple of days with Peppah before the very long 13-hour drive back north on Sunday!
Wow 13 hours drive ! Enjoy your time together!
DeleteOh I love Manu Chao! Are you going to that concert? Sounds like a wonderfully packed rest of the month for you!
ReplyDeleteYeah we went to the concert :) (It was a last minute decision, as we had already said yes to another event that was organized by a friend, but we left early from the former and reached the concert (barely) on time. It was packed). I really like him too.
DeleteEs que es veranoooooo, Amanda! Por eso sobran los eventos... lo que no sobra es el tiempo ni el dinero! grrrrrr!
ReplyDeleteExacto, falta tiempo, y dinero extra tampoco me vendría mal! Vacaciones, conciertos, festivales :)
DeleteThis weekend is a combination of family visits (I think like, half the family is going to be descending on my mother in law's this weekend) and a friend's post wedding pig roast. Busy but awesome.
ReplyDeleteOh this sounds like lots of fun, family + friend times are the best. And after weddings people are often more relaxed and just focus on the fun! Sounds nice!
DeleteYour life is so rich and full of culture! Love it! Oh, and Manu Chao is amazing. You ARE going, right?
ReplyDeleteYup, we went :) I wanted to go so much but we weren't sure if we were able to make it, luckily in the end it worked out. It was super full though!
