an evening with sting

Martin surprised me with tickets to see Sting Symphonicity at Locarno’s Moon & Stars Festival on July 9th. We got up early Saturday morning and took the train south. It was another beautiful trip, and we enjoyed a sunny day filled with gelato, cappuccino, and time enjoying the cool lake water.

After a delicious pizza dinner, we headed to Locarno’s Piazza Grande and waded through the crowd of concertgoers to find a spot from which Sting was more than a speck. He looked good (for his age), sounded even better, and it made for a great evening. Can you tell I was having a good time?

And, Martin was an excellent sport. He made his way through the crowd to get me water and tolerated lots and lots of standing. It was a long evening, but so much fun. Thanks Martin!
