An afternoon at the movies.

Today we planned to spend the day at home, but Susannah's friend Cassie called and invited her to the movies, and as I was taking laurence to town anyway, I thought I may as well drive the girls in - and then take Sam and Abby to see their move - but it turned out that Arthur had finished at the theatre.  Then we saw that the other movie Abby had wanted to see, Hugo, was on at the same time as the girls movie (New Years Eve), so we arranged to go at the same time.

We dropped Laurence off and then headed to the theatre.  The girls went off into the mall and we left them to their own thing, and we went off into the movie theatre as our movie started first.

Hugo was a 3d movie, but this time Sam and Abby both LOVED it and wore their glasses for it - no headaches or complaining!  The movie was AMAZING!  Beautifully made from beginning to end!  Even Abigail said she was crying in places!  It is such a beautiful and touching story!  Amazing to watch - the scenery and characters are so vivid and detailed...such little touches and the 3d effects just make you feel like you are right there in the train station among all the people..so different to watching an animation in 3d!!  Just a beautiful movie!  One of my new favourites!!

We went to see The Muppets with Brandy and although this is VERY different, I just know she will love it....can't wait to hear what she thinks of it!!
