A Wicked Good Weekend

A majority of the Vaterlaus girls had a fun weekend! We met in Portland to go and see the musical Wicked. Vicki, Kristal, Jill, Maggie, Ian (the lone man on the trip, but he was a good sport), Leann, Abby, Abby's friend Sarah, Kristi, LauriAnn, Emily, and Clare all made the trip out. Most of us arrived Friday, and almost everyone made it to dinner at the Olive Garden that night (myself excluded, the traffic around Seattle was nuts!). Saturday morning we broke off into groups to do a little bit of site seeing. Some of us slept in or a had a leisurely breakfast. Others hit the Saturday Market or the Oregon History Museum. We all braved to Portland mass transit at some point and met at the Keller Auditorium for Wicked!

Wicked was great. And Kristal didn't sing any of the lyrics. It was so fun to see the costumes and hear the talented performers. I think everyone really enjoyed the play, even Emily and Kristi who managed to nod off now and then! After the play, Vicki took as all out to P. F. Chang's for dinner, and we indulged in some great food, and had a fun time talking and catching up. I am voting for a girl's weekend every year! LauriAnn
