Bonne nouvelles!
Thanks to the vigilance of the French citizenry, who have respected the imposed restrictions, w e 
have moved to 
Phase II of the deconfinement.

Bars, restaurants and parks will reopen on Tuesday June 2 with certain necessary sanitary restrictions. Travel within the hexagon will no longer be limited to 100KM, making me optimistic that I can once again offer you tours in my favourite regions beginning in September.

A major first step in recapturing the art de vivre that makes our daily life in France so rich.

Stay prudent and I hope to welcome you to Paris soon.

Jorge Luis Borges


Dear Terrance  Thank you for including Dexter Gordon in a recent column. I discovered him almost too late  but was able to purchase all of his CDs except for some European ones.  I saw Round About Midnight  at least 6 times and each viewing just made it more worthwhile to run to Blockbuster after work to rent a copy.  His music is eternal.
