Roosevelt Jazz Band

Hello all, awesome day in France today, hot weather, Roman museum and excavation, a walking tour of the town, good French food, pastries, and espresso, and an extremely well received performance by the band at Les Apres Midi du Jazz venue (amongst some Roman ruins).  Andy and I estimated that about 250 attended, including some children on the grassy slope at stage right who immediately began dancing when the band first started playing.

I did a quick process and sort of some photos and have uploaded them here so you can see for yourselves!

Early start tomorrow as we head to Montreux with a performance in the early evening.

Everyone got their boarding passes, checked their bags, and made it through security!  Kim, Bonnie and I are having one last Starbucks before heading to the gates.  The Doppler radar map at check-in made it look like it will be smooth sailing.  Hope so, clear blue skies in Seattle at least!
