Opera

Shane and I finally had our date night last night. We went to the Opera--Aida--in the Verona Arena. It was really beautiful. We had great weather--it was warm, but there was a breeze. I had never been to an opera before and I doubt I will ever see one that will impress me as much. Being in the open air, under the stars, in the arena, with a huge stage--it was amazing! I'm really glad we went. I was also pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to follow the story even though it was all done in Italian. (Shane didn't enjoy that part as much--he wants one in English) All in all in was a lovely evening that I will never forget.
