Branson Day 2
Our breakfast at the hotel is acceptable, not bad but not good either, just kind of blah. Right after breakfast we headed to historic downtown Branson. Adopted Twice was the first show we had decided to see. This is a family of 10 adopted children. Their mom is a college professor and after 11 years of marriage and no children ended up adopting 7 from Guatemala, 2 from Peru and one from Missouri.
The tickets were $28.00 plus tax and their show lasted a couple of hours. They were entertaining and we will highly recommend them to anyone traveling to Branson for some good gospel music. The day was so sunny and warm we wanted to spend some time outside. We found a nice park to sit a bit in the sunshine. Below mom and Karin are sitting at a picnic table in the park.
Of course we need a close up:
Not that we were craving a horse fix or anything but we stopped at the Dixie Stampede and looked at all of their horses. They had one Friesian named Nico who was imported from the Netherlands. He was getting older, had a lot of gray on his face. What was interesting was all the stalls were filled with horses and the only horse craving attention was the one and only Friesian on the property.
Karin took the picture below of mom and I checking out the lines on the carriage below.
Next on our list was a quick lunch at a burger joint. We had decided to eat a light lunch so mom and I split a burger. It was $5.00 for the cheesburger but all the fixens were free. We added a slice of pineapple, grilled mushrooms, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, pickles and ketchup. mmmm delicious.
The Titanic museum was next on our list. This was $25.00, no pictures were allowed inside. Mom felt it was worth the money, I really did not. A history buff would enjoy it.
We drove back to the hotel for a quick rest before heading out to dinner at a chicken and steak place.
We got right in and were served quickly. We left from there for the Sight and Sound Theater.
Below is Wally, Janell, Eva Jean and mom waiting for the play to start.
We ALL highly recommend going to this if you are ever in the Branson area.
We are ready to go home, we are tired of sitting around being entertained and are ready to DO something. We decided Branson is fun for a day or 2 but we miss our homes, families, dogs, and horses.
