The Manhattan Transfer European Tour-Winter '08

The winter tour has been an interesting and exciting adventure so far! We started out in Milan, Italy, and as the pic to the left here might suggest, the Italian dining never disappoints! From there we ventured north to Scandinavia. We spent our time working from Oslo, Norway, to Copenhagen, Denmark to Stockholm, Sweden with many other cities in between. It was dark and cold and I fell victim to the dreaded common cold-a rough one. Luckily our bus driver is a licensed nurse and had lots of helpful pills!!
We just spent a few days in Tel Aviv, Israel and got a good dose of sunshine & hummus!! A quick day trip to Jerusalem led me to the Wailing Wall & other exciting parts of old Jerusalem including the Via Dolorosa! Now I am in Tallinn, Estonia where it is cold and dark again! Next up is Helsinki, Bratislava, Moscow & Samara, Russia. All the concerts have been great and well attended. The first Tel Aviv show was broadcast live on Israeli Radio! More to come soon!
