I’m more of the “earplug” school myself I remember taking my mother to see “Madame Butterfly” quite a few Mother’s Days ago. I literally nearly feel asleep! My comment at the time was that I didn’t see the appeal of Americans, dressed as Japanese, and singing in Italian about someone who wilted away after a man left her.

OK, I’m thinking I wouldn’t fall asleep during this performance

Yes Adriana add this to your list.

Tip for everyone – you don’t need to go through a tour office, just ask the staff at the hotel and hopdefully they can help you or google. it. If you go through a tour office you pay a ridiculous price.

Catherine – Thanks!!!!

Lorraine – You’re welcome. Even though there’s alot of hype about including videos in blogs, I’ve always wondered if people watch them.
