Iceland in October......Brrrrr !

Thanks Renate

[sam]

Mamma mia!!!!!
Grazie Renate

[Janice]

I'm guessing this is a first for Andrea? I don't believe I recall him ever going to perform in Iceland before. I wonder if we will get any reports/pictures from anybody. Hope so!

[Tesora]

Do we have any members on here from Iceland? If not, we soon will I'm sure!

[LaCavallerizza]

That was my first thought..."Brrrr.."
So are you going to brave the cold Caroline?

[kaycarley]

I have always wanted to visit Iceland. This could be a good reason to do it now. Problem is that it is usually very expensive and difficult to get to.
Still might be worth investigating.

[carolina1954]

I just checked flights with Icelandair.......£367 return !!!!

More lottery tickets required !!

[Lelly]

Oo I can see him now - in his big long coat buttoned up to the neck and his scarf blowing in the wind - hope he doesn't get too cold! I don't think we'll be able to make that concert, much as I would love to. Saving for Tuscany next year!

Was that for 1 or 2 people? BA is £149.40 return for 1.... what, me? Tempted? Just looking, honest!!

That was for one, with Icelandair.
Did you put in the October date ?

It is quite tempting though, isn't it, but top ticket price is £179 and you wouldn't want less than a top ticket, now, would you....
Mmmmmm...early Christmas present ?

Yes, I put in 29/10 (no flights 30th or 31st) - 1/11, well, you'd want a few days there anyway wouldnt you? Top ticket would be a must!!! I think an early Christmas & birthday present..... I've just come back from Lajatico..its happening again....Andrea withdrawal symptoms!!

Jan

[carolina1954]

Same here Jan, withdrawal symptoms....but I have Vienna to look forward to.
Shall probably give Iceland a miss......possibly.......

Juste par curiosité j'ai regardé les prix des vols : 914.36 euro !!! sans commentaires.

Aller en Islande fin octobre n'est pas très tentant, pas de regrets.

Espérons des contrées à venir plus accessibles.

[westsiderny]

Francesca, from JFK to Reykjavik (R/T direct flight) is USD884.00... still not tempted. Will wait until he comes to NYC. In the meantime I may 'cheat' on Andrea with Daniel Auteuil... He is not a singer but a fantastic actor and I love his big nose and everything else... I think I am in love with him. If Andrea doesn't come to the USA (or at least there is not a schedule soon), I will go to the Cinema Festival in Rome to see Daniel with Monica Bellucci in "Le Deuxième Souffle". I hope they win an award... In the meantime, I am catching up with all of his movies...

[Francesca]

Le dernier film que j'ai vu était justement avec Daniel Auteuil : "Dialogues avec mon jardinier". Un très beau film.

C'est un acteur que j'aime bien en général.

Il jouait dans ce film franco-italien que nous appelons "La folie des hommes" et où Andrea chantait Proteggimi

J'ai aussi regardé pour toi, Francesca, et j'ai trouvé un prix de 425 euro(sur Icelandair.com)... Bien sure, c'est cher, mais un peu plus resonable que 914 euro!
Alors, penses-tu a Vienna??

Laura

[Francesca]

Tu es gentille de penser à moi Laura. Non je n'irai pas à Vienne non plus.

Surtout, ayant peur d'une nouvelle annulation je ne veux plus programmer de voyage à l'étranger. Je crois qu'il n'y a qu'à Lajatico qu'on puisse être à peu près certain que le concert aura lieu. Je pourrais à la rigueur envisager un voyage en Belgique(pas de problème de langue, accès facile).

Si on trahit ma confiance c'est fini.

[sofia]

Faut il encore qu'il revienne en Belgique un jour,car la derniere fois il y avait 10 ans entre les deux concerts!

[Francesca]

C'est justement ce qui me fait penser qu'il y a très peu de chance que je le revois un jour...la France ? il n'y faut plus songer, la Belgique ? dans 10 ans
Il reste encore une solution : Monaco ; je peux avoir un voyage en train gratuit pour cette destination

[sofia]

Et en plus il y a toujours le soleis a Monaco,contrairement qu'en Belgique.
Oui,Monaco serait ideal .Les voyages trop loin sont trop dangereux pour cause d'annulation.

[Francesca]

J'aime beaucoup Monaco. Quand j'y suis allée pour voir Andrea dans Mme Butterfly il y avait un grand soleil, du mimosa partout, alors que j'avais traversé toute la France sous la neige, il faut dire que c'était début février. Et un voyage sur la côte d'azur est toujours agréable, j'avais un hôtel à prix modéré.
Ne rêvons pas.....

Yes, I have the video of "La folie des hommes" ("Vajont") that I recorded from RAI International, not only once but twice, just in case. The song "Proteggimi" sounds beautiful in Andrea's voice! I also have the soundtrack CD but 'Proteggimi' wasn't included.

The "Dialogues avec mon jardinier" movie hasn't reach the American market yet, but my Library has the book by Henri Cueco. I am keeping an eye on all Daniel's movies... until Andrea decides to treat us with another CD...

[carolina1954]

I think this has been mentioned before, but "Proteggimi" is on the DVD "Credo", for those who have not heard it before.

Are we sidetracking " un po" ?

Molto da guardare no?

Siamo un po' fuori dell'argomento, è vero. Pero' anche parlando di altro parliamo sempre di Andrea
