Brrrrr!

Last day in Branson-- when I stepped out of the room this morning, I stepped back in to get my heavy sweater to wear under my cape. The high today was supposed to be 42, but I'm not sure it ever made it.

Our first show was the Dalena Ditto show. A variety show with singing of various sorts, a lady ventriloquist doing the old "Who's on First" routine (very well, I might add), a lady fiddler and about 10 costume changes for the star. Every time she left the stage she came back in something more spectacular than before. She was even Minnie Pearl (that outfit was not too spectacular). A wonderful pair of Russian dancers rounded out the entertainment. A really good show, even tho' the star was not a "big name" entertainer.




The bus then left us at the Country Market. We were reminded that supper on the Showboat would be early (about 5:30) and not to eat too much, so we would be able to enjoy the Showboat food. I ate a little salad and a cookie and looked around the shops. Didn't buy anything.



In one of the eating areas of the Country Market--Nick and Banjo




We still have two travelers that are not joining us because of illness. Sorry they missed today.

Report on the Branson Belle tomorrow morning .............
