Ravinia reeelaxing





So we went to Ravinia last night to see Feist, see full report over on Mookiedaddy, but it was nice. Bella was good. The weather was perfect. It was also
Pinky's first show (Isabella's Lovey). Bella has been wiped out today though from staying out till 11 pm. Don't worry, she was pretty asleep by 10:15. But she is DRAGGING today. Not to mention part CRANK. see sippy pic to the right.

The only thing that was crazy about Ravinia last night was that this family of about 10 people decided to be latecomers and sit by us in an area the size of a nickel. ok, maybe a 3 foot by 4 foot rectangle carpet. NOT enough room for 10 bodies. Plus they were more irritating becuase they were all SUPER skinny, and they brought enough food to feed the entire 10K lawn seating area. I didn't see them bring the food, WHICH kept on coming and coming (which I was jealous of becuase it was all good asian food too); all I saw them bring was umpteen million chairs. But they packed all the food away, these skinny ass people. It was unbelievable--while taking up an area that was just way too small. I hate moochie latecomers with good food.

We sat in OUR place, right outside the covered stage on the lawn. So it was still enjoyable with good volume, good shade, good emmenities by us like a coveted drinking foutain, food vendors--with freaking $5 superpretzels (of which bella begged for 1), and of course decent bathrooms....we brought a few things to eat, bella ate like a cow too, polishing off fresh strawberries, pullapart bread, cheese, juice...
