The scenery was fascinating this morning when I left home. At 7am on a sunday morning, Paris was still asleep. I could hardly hear any noise but the birds' singing. The street lights were still on and the dimmed daylight turned the scenery to a grey-blue tone. It was beautiful.
Here I am, in the train for Luxembourg. I had a terrible night, I went to bed at 10 pm and couldn't fall asleep until 3am. Maybe it was because of the heat? The fatigue? The stress? I have no idea. The thought of a difficult gala tonight and an early train back to Paris tomorrow morning frustrates me. It is going to be tough! The weather this morning is very cold suddenly, yet I felt a bit hot yesterday night. The scenery was fascinating this morning when I left home. At 7am on a sunday morning, Paris was still asleep. I could hardly hear any noise but the birds' singing. The street lights were still on and the dimmed daylight turned the scenery to a grey-blue tone. It was beautiful. Fortunately, the gala went very well, I am happy with my performance. Curiously I didn't feel tired during the show probably thanks to my stage-fright! Upon our arrival, we went right away to the theatre by a nice modern green van. The 15 minutes ride was too short for us to sight-see Luxembourg. From what I saw, Luxembourg seems to be a very clean city. The theatre where we performed is called Kinneksbond. I didn't have time to take good photos of the theatre but its modern architecture is pretty nice. The staffs inside offered us a very warm welcome and I found out that we speak both French and German in Luxembourg.The food was provided by the theatre and it was delicious yet not enough!! Some other dancers ordered big burgers from outside after the show! However, the hotel where we stayed was soooo nice! What a shame that we only stayed there for no more than 7 hours: we arrived at aronud mid night and we left for Paris at 7 on Monday morning because we have rehearsals in the Opera in the afternoon. I have no rehearsal today and I decide to skip today's class and let myself rest for a day. I slept for 13 hours last night and oh, it was so good! I have not been sleeping enough during the past week.

Glad to hear you caught up on some sleep & decided to rest. I hope you recoup fully. Everything from the modern van to the very hard-edged, clean bathroom is interesting here! Many of these things appear never-before-used. Thank you for sharing, Chun Wing; hoping you feel well & peaceful & strong! Somehow the photos arranged in portrait in this slideshow appear very small on my screen, but indeed you look quite pale in a couple of the shots. Rest!
