Wednesday night

We just returned from our dinner theatre. What a great time!!! The kids looked like different people in their dress clothes. We had an excellent buffet downstairs in the elegant dining room of the Sheraton. Afterwards, we were treated to an incredible show from DC's Now This Improv. This team is very talented, taking small bits of information and creating hilarious scenes , some of them musical. They used members of the audience to help in the scenes. Some of the themes included "White Grape Earring Man who took a step to the left" done in opera genre; a talent show featuring Lakan and her mom with Elena as the stage director and Alek as costume manager.; "Smelly Sock Quest" featuring Chris and Ney and Now This Improv members playing the roles of Queen Michelle Daleb and Lady Kim Adams.
We laughed for over an hour, and asked for and were granted an encore performance.
Thank you, Lord for laughter and joy and silliness and friendship and all the things we sometimes take for granted.

Tomorrow we head to the Air Force Memorial, then to Mount Vernon to tour George Washington's plantation home. Then, we are back on the plane headed for home, ready to see our families and classmates again.
It has been a great trip!
