PNE

What? A post with no pictures? Yes, I'm sorry, but you'll have to use your imagination!
Yesterday we went to the PNE. We hadn't been the last two years because we found the entertainment was too repetitive. But Rachael wanted to see the SuperDogs again, and it looked like they had a bunch of new stuff, so off we went.
The first thing we went to see were the Bejing Acrobats, and let me tell you, they were amazing! The flips and tricks and the way they could twist their bodies was incredible! It was very cool. Then we went to see the SuperDogs. They had a new sponsor and a new host (which isn't a bad thing!) but the tricks were the same old. But the girls really liked it and that's all that matters! We saw the cartoon parade and Rachael shook Brother Bear's hand, and Kaitlyn shook the big bad wolf's hand. There were lots of characters they recognized like the Berenstain Bears, Strawberry Shortcake, Clifford (though he must have been the Small Red Puppy still, because he was not big!) the Cat in the Hat and the dinosaur with Fred Flinstone that we just saw at Dinotown! There were lots they (and we!) didn't recognize. My girls just don't know about Saturday morning cartoons, and I'm fine with keeping it that way, thank you very much!
We also saw the miniature horse show, which again was a bit of a snoozer but the kids liked it. The last show we saw was the Illusions and Beyond which was really cool. They did lots of neat magic tricks and we all enjoyed it. And of course we saw the show home and the market place and had lots of snacks to eat. It was even nice and sunny, but not too hot. Perfect PNE weather. If only the weather will cooperate for Saturday's waterslides...
