The original theater was built in 1859, but was completely destroyed in a fire in 1881. I’d be curious to see what the original theater looked like back then, but I wasn’t able to find much information on it when I googled it. The current one is quite impressive.

I am glad to read above that you are not only taking full advantage but keep a great record of how you felt, what you saw, and heard. I am amused by the bingo thing. Sounds funny. You did in one weekend what some people dream of doing their entire lives. I love that you saw the street dancers…how fun. I love that type of thing. Those surprises that just grab you and draw you in. Too much fun. Love the photo’s by the way. This is what I expected to see all along. The culture feels right and fun and amazing.

I have really enjoyed reading your blog. It’s too bad that Jay can’t share some of these things with you, but you know, as projects, they always come to an end. I understand your Mom and Dad are leaving Sunday to be with you and Jay in Split. Have a wonderful time and keep sending the news.

Love,

Aunt Fran
