Impossible Blues
Anne & Kirk Woodyard – Music and Markets Tours
Memories of an April day in Cassis, a seaside favorite (we just watched the sunset there tonight!) and a don’t-miss on both our spring and summer Provence tours.
It’s the battle of the blues today – between the sky and the seait’s a toss-up as to which is the blue-est!
Fisherman are already back from their early morning sortie, and speedily filet their catch for savvy shoppers – get here early for the freshest lunch in town!Before we head out to sea ourselves, we can’t miss the Friday market – one of the prettiest in the region,
scarves wafting in the breeze,
and more blues vying for our attention.
The day couldn’t be better for our sail to three calanques, fjord-like inlets along the coast towards Marseilles.
A few hardy souls are sun-bathing and swimming –It’s still a little chilly, in mid-April, for my taste.
But not too chilly to for an al fresco lunch of Moules- Frites (Mussels and Fries) by the port.
Cassis, you’ve shown off superbly today!
********************************************************************************
The best way to describe us (Kirk and Anne Woodyard) is that we’re interested in the stories that make the places we visit come alive.
We’ve visited Europe more times than we can count, learned some entertaining stories there, and met some warm and helpful people who also enjoy the wonders of music and life in Europe. We look forward to sharing these stories and friends and experiences with our Music and Markets guests.
Between our music-related travels, we split our time between our homes near Washington DC and the south of France.
While both of us have experience in organizing travel and music groups Kirk’s background is in project management and competitive writing, and Anne is an accomplished pianist with over thirty years of teaching experience, and a travel and food writer specializing in France and Italy.
