gryllosblog   Gryllo's (aka Ian Lewis') blog. All things to do with travel, wildlife especially birds, history, architecture and anything else that interests me.

Now for something completly different! This afternoon for the first time in my life  went to an opera.

Margaret and I joined five friends for a posh picnic and a matinée performance of Puccini’s Tosca at Bryanston School, Blandford.

Initially I was a bit sceptical and even dozed a little in the first act, but in the second and third act I got really involved and have to admit that I really enjoyed it.

Next time I will have to go an opera where I actually know some of the music like Carmen or Nessun Dorma.

Back to bird stuff tomorrow!
