    February 8, 2012 - Ricardo Zayas

    A list of funny/strange/crazy stuff:

    • In some small French cities, Sunday (or dimanche) is synonymous with Armageddon.

    • Animal flavored potato chips.


    • I didn't know who Jessica Lange was before 2012- OUTRAGEOUS. I'm ashamed.

    • Every city in France has at least one carousel or merry-go-round.

    • Checks are accepted in France... in 2012... in abundance.

    • The French make better parents than Americans. Read more here.

    February 6, 2012 - Caroline Rocher

    Coucou! We arrived in Narbonne yesterday, the ninth out of ten-stop of the tour. Yep, it’s almost time to fly back to San Francisco! But despite the unusually cold weather and the long rides on the bus, the tour has been going well so far. Plus, I always like to come to France to perform because I get to see family and friends! Indeed, my mum and my brother came to the show in Le Havre, my friend Julia with whom I danced at the Bavarian State Ballet saw the performance in Villefontaine, and tomorrow my dance teacher from ...

    February 3, 2012 - David Harvey

    I splashed some Mediterranean on my face today. C'est froid!

    We have a day off in Cannes, and while I know most of my colleagues are trying not to spend all of their per diem on wardrobe refurbishments, I'm trying to not spend my per diem all on millefeuille and cannelle. It is gorgeous today on the Cote D'azur. It is plenty cold, but I'm surely grateful for the vitamin D. Earlier, I walked up to Notre-Dame de l'Esperance, where there's an old fortified tower on a hill that overlooks the city and marina ...

    February 1, 2012 - Victor Mateos Arellano

    I don’t like cold, and after five years living in Amsterdam and six in Germany, I am ready to not have any more winters under 15 degrees; but here I am, back in Europe with a cold Siberian wave, that is making the thermometers go under 10 degrees and less. It is a lot! And to finish the cake, I got injured three days before we started the tour. My Achilles tendon went crazy and became as big as a tennis ball. I could not even fit into my shoes! Even now, it feels awful and I cannot dance ...

    January 20, 2012 - Keelan Whitmore

    It’s 6:15am on January 20 and I’ve been up already for about two hours. The lioness, Jet Lag, has frequented my sleep since the start of this tour. She had me fooled the first couple days, as we had a nice flight that left SFO around 7:30pm and arrived in Zurich around 3:30pm, but now she has me sleeping on the wrong side of the meridiem--am to pm instead of pm to am. As opposed to a full-grown, ferociously protective mother of a litter of cubs found in the wild, she appeared as a cute ...

    Ah, Europe. It’s been years since we last met. You are haunting and beautifully aged; you’ve been missed.
