Yeah, Cuban food and the beaches are worth a little skirmish with a few bird-size skeeters. but don't worry; they are starting to migrate up to Alaska for the summer tourist season feast.
Chris is here working, probably won't come back with me on the 6th but will have to stay till the 10th. That's why I came down, knowing he'd be gone for some weeks, and I did have a handy spring break week. So we'll have some fun amid the work, like maybe go to the Everglades for the day on Sat.; the very expensive but worth it ballet on Friday (Tharp is choreographer, Costello composer---not performing themselves), some marina art walk on Thursday.

"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks
