Nixon in China, Huh?

 Hi, I have not been able to post much this week, kind of embroiled in work and some other matters that are time consuming and tiring. I did want to share this. Verona, which is one of my favorite cities in Italy, has this ancient roman theatre. It is not as big but in better shape than the coliseum in Rome. They have any number of concerts there on a regular basis. The seats are stone and the whole place looks like a big trip hazard, but it sure has a great historical ambiance. We were too tired when we were there, to go to the musical, but they had a musical based on the Hunchback of Notre Dame. They also have lots of operas. Well, the wife and I could hardly believe our eyes when we say this one show coming up in 2008. The show is called "Nixon in China." No clue what is is about, so don't ask, but you have to admit it does entice the imagination.
