[+/-] : [vanwalker] Monet to Dali: Modern Masters from the Cleveland Museum

昨天和媽媽姐姐小朋友們去看溫哥華美術館展出的Monet to Dali: Modern Masters from the Cleveland Museum ，星期二晚上是捐款入場日，加上這次是印象派+後印象派+現代主義+超現實主義的大拜拜，人真是暴多，光要入場就排隊排到館外了，館內真是擠粽子，完全是人挨著人，但出奇的安靜，少有人碰撞到對方，一點點碰到也趕快道歉..帶著皮兒子的帥爸爸講話輕聲細語，同性伴侶挨著頭討論，媽媽問娃娃車中的寶寶在畢卡索的畫裡看到什麼東東。

這次展出克里夫蘭博物館的80幅典藏，超大大師的作品都來了，真的是好運氣呀！

印刷品和網路無法表達出珍珠般色的陽光和清透的天藍色。

[+/-] : [vanwalker] Vancouver Jazz Festival on Granville Island

帶杜大丸去Granville Island，看了兩場免費的Jazz。
很好運氣，聽到了Girl from Ipanema。

Vancouver International Jazz Festival 一向是城裡的大事，也是爵士界的大拜拜，今年是堂堂第23年，樂迷門滿城奔走，除了音樂廳的表演，也有酒吧、餐廳的現場演出，戶外免費場等等，老老少少，大狗小狗通通出動。不知為何，同樣是大拜拜，在台北趕影展的感覺就不太一樣，台北的拜拜感覺好像比較階層化耶，趕拜拜的學生們出了社會之後都好難再有時間回去拜拜...

Ganache Patisserie

Ganache Patisserie, an amazing pastry in Vancouver.
A fusion style of French and Japanese pastries, heavy in chocolate, light in sweetness.
This is the place I would drive a long way to pick up my family's cakes.
A sit-in dessert set like this would be around $6 for one piece of cake and a cup of coffee, great cake, and excellent coffee.
