By the Maritime Museum we listened to epic music out in the open. I love live orchestras because it usually isn’t like pop/rock concerts where the sound is so loud (like that Alice Cooper concert) we’re all just in there for a session of permanent ear damage. Jeez, I sound like an old lady. I might be one though because looking around at the crowd there it was mostly elderly people or their grandkids. The coziest part was when my lovely man and I lied down in the grass and held hands while they played Beethoven’s fifth. It was one of those summer days when you eat cinnamon buns and listen to Sarah Dawn Finer singing about what a wonderful world it is and you realize all the reasons why are around you. Tens of thousands of people coming together to just listen to some music for no other reason than that’s it’s beautiful.
