do you believe in magic?


Yes, I do! We had so much fun with Roxanne and Mike last night. First of all the game started with lots of loud music and fireworks to give us a thrill. Basketball has gone very high tech since the last time I was at a professional game. We even had an indoor blimp! They played the Pistons and everyone expected them to lose. The first half was nothing less than "beautiful basketball". Textbook plays perfectly executed...a thrill to watch. The Magic were leading by 15 at halftime. Doug warned that it was not enough of a lead, which turned out to be prophetic, because by the end of the third quarter, they were nearly tied. During the 4th quarter, the Pistons kept close and finally, in the last two minutes of the game, overtook us. In a thrilling end, we came back to win!

After the game we went to a Spanish restaurant (as in Spain) to eat some authentic food from Mike's mission. The restaurant was near downtown, called Ole, Ole! He had heard about it on a radio talk show that morning. It was a beautiful night and all the doors and windows were open. The food was amazing!

Good friends, good entertainment, good food!


IT WAS MAGIC
