Zip Line

Cahl's mom came to town for the weekend to watch the boys' games, and today was her birthday. We surprised her by taking her out to dinner at a tiny little place downtown that she started going to 35 years ago. In fact, when Cahl was growing up, they went there every year for her birthday, but she hadn't been there in probably close to 20 years, since she and Cahl moved to Idaho. So we decided it would be the perfect place for her birthday dinner! It was fantastic, and I think she was surprised and very happy to go there again after such a long time.

After dinner we went over to Fremont Street. Being a Friday night, all the street performers were out! We saw a guy in a box, and we ran into most of KISS, Brett Micheals, Austin Powers, Betty Boop, Jessica Rabbit, Spiderman, and Darth Vader. My boys nearly passed out when they saw him! They even got to fight him with light sabers!

Fremont St has a zip line going through it, and Tristan, Jasen and I got to ride it. It was so much fun! You start on the top (5th) level of a parking garage, and go down about halfway under the Experiance covering. I made it all the way, but both boys got stuck and had to be pulled in. They were so nervous, but ended up loving it!
