BAYLOR: Red scarf, white shirt and San Miguel beer
I’ve been lucky to witness a May Day parade in Vienna, frenetic all-night Greek political rallies, Munich’s fabled Oktoberfest, U2 live in Ireland, selected soccer matches and small bits of the Tour de France. The fall of the Berlin Wall in ’89 was a one-time celebration, requiring three decades of preparation and packing a visceral punch, but I missed that one.
New Albany is a state of mind … but whose? Since 2004, we’ve been observing the contemporary scene in this slowly awakening old river town. If it’s true that a pre-digital stopped clock is right twice a day, when will New Albany learn to tell time?
Do I file that under "opinion" or "reporting"?
ReplyDeleteFile under "genuinely shocked I could remember any of it."
ReplyDeleteI suppose now the Daughters of the Pamplona Festival (DAPF?) will be correcting me. They're probably right. Like Hemingway, I never met a Pamplona alcoholic beverage I didn't like.
Seriously, nice article. I just hate that I have to "live" a life through your travel writings.
