Vacation - Our Night with Barbra

So Monday night we had our night out with Barbra and Il Divo. The concert was a blast. It was really wonderful to hear all the songs from days gone by and see a very entertaining Barbra Streisand. Mind you we were also chosen as the audience for her Showtime Presentation later this year and for a DVD that will come out soon. Due to the fact that the event was taped something very funny happened right before the show. When we looked around at 730 pm there were maybe 200 or 300 empty seats down in front of the stage and on the sides - and all of a sudden there were tons of people lining up filling up the seats... So that were would not be a single empty seat being seen on TV... We thought this to be very funny. We sat in the last row of the stadium but still had an excellent view - there were two large screen where the event was telecast, so really there was no need to pay $1,000 per ticket - we paid about 100 Euro to hear Barbra - and it was damn worth it! Well off we go - we need to catch some sun, it is snowing back in Berlin - ugh the mere thought of wet winter weather makes me want to win the lotto so much more. :) T
