The Phantom of the Opera

We had another fun day in the City Saturday. My parents drove up Friday night just in time to have dinner at a local Italian restaurant that they (and us) love. The last two times they have come up we've eaten there. I don't think it would be a stretch to say that we will probably eat there every time they come to visit us.

Saturday, we picked up my brother and had a family picture at the Golden Gate Bridge. It was an abnormally bright, sunny day in the City. That didn't last too long though. It soon got really cold and rained/hailed on us while we were walking around to find a place for lunch.

And the reason we were in the City to begin with-The Phantom of the Opera! I loved it! I had only seen the movie, Travis had seen both, but couldn't remember the musical and my parents and brother hadn't seen either. Everyone enjoyed it and had a great time. I was surprised at how close the movie version is to the musical. Some of the songs are a little more pumped up and cut short in the movie, but if it's the only version you get to see then it's great. If it comes to your city though I would take the opportunity to see it!
