a cultural date night...

14 September 2008

ben and i got tickets to go see the broadway version of "the lion king" :)
we went yesterday - got dressed up, took the train to fukuoka, did a little shopping at the mall we like there, and saw the 5:30 show. even though it was in japanese, you could figure out most of what was going on, and it was a neat experience. :) we couldn't take pictures inside the show, but here are a few from before we went in!

a nice girl saw our self-portraits and took this one for us, too...

today we are just hanging out... i think i'm catching a cold, and we are both worn out from a long stressful last week. ben leaves again really soon, so pray for us if you think of it! thanks, friends!
