Hansel and Gretel

Marina and I had tickets to the opera Hansel and Gretel this afternoon. We invited Ainsley to join us. It had been my plan to go to lunch first, but both girls had eaten late breakfasts and were not hungry. So we hang around the house for a while before we went to the arts center.

We arrived early for the show. There were no concession available, so there wasn’t much to do but wait. The girls talked and showed each other photos on their phones until the show started.

The opera was funny and easy to follow. Marina and Ainsley both enjoyed the performance, especially the tenor who played the witch. After the performance, we listened to the question and answer session where little kids asked questions.

After the show, both girls were hungry. So we stopped for a late lunch.
