It happened ONE day last week!!

Michael and I got on Bart and went to SF for the afternoon and evening.

I wanted to see this Samurai display at the museum and it was the same 

Bart stop as WICKED!!
We first went to the display and learned LOTS of new things about Japan.
And then we WON the lottery for two tickets for WICKED!!  YEAH!!

That made the show $50 for the 2 of us instead of $160!  What a lucky deal!!
WICKED!!
What a good show!  We were 4 seats over to the right of stage the 1st 1/2 

and then we moved to front row middle 2nd 1/2 and LOVED the WHOLE show!!
