Summer Vacation Day 5 - May 31, 2013

Today we slept in and had a lazy breakfast.  Kerry and I took a walk down to the lake.  It was steamy hot and lots of humidity!  Then we had lunch and went on our first drive into Branson.  First, we picked up all of our tickets and then we headed to the Showboat Branson Belle.  It was a dinner show that was fabulous!!
 The grounds were beautiful, too!
 This is the largest boat made for a land-locked lake.


 We were in the first row of this huge dinner theatre.

 Part of this show was a magician/comedian.  He was really funny and very talented.  We really had NO idea how he did most of his tricks.
 This is Janice Martin.  She graduated from Julliard School of Music and is an amazing violinist.  She also plays the piano and has a beautiful voice.  This show was called Made in America and was a combination of showtunes, tv tunes, gospel classics, and proud to be American stuff.  Nathan said "This can't be topped".  It was really, really wonderful even though this doesn't give it the credit it deserved.
I didn't post for day 4 because all we did was drive, drive drive in rain, rain, rain.  It was a long, stressful day but we made it safely to our resort and were happy to arrive :)
