Skating and bouncing

Saturday was full of fun! The day started with Disney on Ice, which my pal Melinda and I had been looking forward to for quite a while. I was able to get the tickets really early and get front row, and we had a great time at the show. The plot was really creative - the Incredibles family is spending a day at the Magic Kingdom, and Syndrome shows up and kidnaps Mickey & Minnie! There are lots of attractions reenacted on ice, including the Haunted Mansion (which was the best) and Pirates of the Caribbean (it was hilarious to see Mickey & Minnie behind bars in the famous "dog with keys" scene, but so sad!). The whole show was really cool, with only one exception - all the kids under twelve got Incredibles bracelets with light-up buttons, and we didn't get them (even when I asked). Meanies!

Later that evening, my pal Bernadette had her 30th birthday party, which was celebrated with karaoke, DDR, and a giant moon walk (bounce house, or whatever you want to call it)! It was a lot of fun bouncing (and exhausting), and I got to play a lot of DDR as the designated demonstrator. The highlight of the evening was after midnight when lots of the girls put on formal dresses and did some bouncing! It was too dark for good photos, but I have some great night-shot video (which will someday be a slow-motion masterpiece).
