Jazz at the Rex

With our boat put away for the winter, and Marleyne saying a "bye bye" for now, we are ready for some other travels.

As members of the Opera Guild here in Kingston, we, subsequently, enjoyed 2 operas in Toronto.  We are also using these events to stay over night in order to get our share of visits to galleries, to museums and to eat something exotic.

One nice surprise was our discovery of the Rex Jazz Bar on Queen's Street. What a cool place! How come we only now discovered this jazz and blues bar? Today we got to hear the Laura Hubert Band, a pretty amazing gang of 5 playing great jazz. We also enjoyed a couple of "Mill Street Ales".  In all:  a perfect late afternoon on a cold and windy day.

Next, we will be driving down to Texas to celebrate with Niko his pilot graduation.  We look forward to seeing him.  He has a neat blog ... http://niko-2011.blogspot.com/ and is looking forward to his next assignment - flying the Eurofighter!
