Sesame Street Live

Waiting for the show to start!

One of the perks of being stationed overseas is that we get some pretty cool shows over here for free. A few months ago we took the girls to see The Imagination Movers, which was sponsored by MWR on base. Yesterday the USO brought Sesame Street Live to town! The girls were so excited and couldn't wait. It's all they have been talking about. The show was great, Lily danced the whole time and was so excited to touch Cookie Monster's hand. Rebecca loved it too, although she is still a little shy around characters so she wouldn't put her hand out. They even got a cool Elmo light up toy to bring home...all for free!

Waving to Cookie Monster,
her favorite!

After the show we went out for an early dinner. For those of you living here, I'm sure you've heard of Blanca Paloma, the delicious Italian restaurant in Puerto Sherry. It's actually only a 5 minute walk from our house so we go here a lot. However, yesterday we decided to try the other Blanco Paloma...located just off of 491. Luckily they were open, they open at 1:00 in the summer and stay open until spanish dinner time. This was perfect for us because we went at 4:00, right when everything is closed for siesta. The food was delicious...I would say better then Puerto Sherry, although you don't get the view of the beach. We didn't mind though because it was close to 100 degrees and we ate inside in the air conditioning.

It was a great afternoon, we missed Daddy though, who's still in Germany.

Adios.
