Suzanne



We discovered Suzanne in our favorite Observation Deck on Monday evening after Havana. We returned on Tuesday for her first set, all music by Elton John and Bill Joel. On Wednesday, I read that she was playing at the Sugarcane, where she had an electric piano an recorded accompaniment on one of several laptops set up for her.

Suzanne is very talented. Her accent is “something” – maybe a hint of Eastern European. She plays everything with competence and polish, acknowledging events in people’s live, like an engagement one night and a honeymoon on the next. Her voice is smooth and soothing

Last night in the Sugarcane, we left early because rude customers at the bar talked through the entire performance. The volume got louder as alcohol consumption increased. Suzanne played on, as though oblivious to the noise.

About Me

My photo
The first blog was a simple travel journal written during an Alaskan cruise in 2008. I document all of our trips, and refer to my posts fairly frequently, especially when we're planning a return visit to a destination. I enjoy recording events in both words and pictures -- blogging is one more way of staying in touch with family and friends in this wonderful, connected world. I've been retired since April of 2013, and there's no shortage of things to do or activities to enjoy. I enjoy writing about everything ... and nothing.
