Yesterday we attended a guitar workshop in the Visitors’ Center and a drumming workshop in the rock garden in front of the NorthMart. Girl Unicorn took over a hundred photos of the drumming event and posted some on her blog.
The guitarist admitted that he was more nervous in front of the 6 or so people in the workshop, than in front of big crowds. He also said that it is for the first time ever someone was listening to an ipod at his workshop. Yes, my 4 year old boy unicorn didn’t appreciate country music.
I chatted a little with a musician from Toronto—he was in awe with the Arctic, with the town, with everything he saw.
I was proud that Boy Unicorn was patient and understanding during the guitar workshop, even if he didn’t like the music. I was relieved that my Girl Unicorn brought her ipod to share. And I was especially proud that my Girl Unicorn bravely walked up to the guitarist and asked him whether he was ever nervous or shy while performing. (And he said yes, almost always).
After 4 hours of walking downtown, we were too exhausted to attend the opening ceremonies.
