REVIEWS:
Lisa reviewed seeing the film of 'Meshuga Nutcracker' at 3Below as it was enjoyable to see the gang again & helped lift her spirits and get her in a holiday mood. Yochanan followed, voicing support of Lisa's sentiment that we should patronize 3Below more to help keep them viable
& Lisa reviewed the live drive-thru Holiday Light Show that Lake Cunningham is doing as that it also helped get her more in a holiday mood & was delightful. Craig commented that he is very glad that the Lake Cunningham event is going well because he has heard truly horrible reviews for this year's Dicken's Faire drive-thru
For more info about Lake Cunningham's light show, which is playing through Jan 9th, check = https://www.christmasinthepark.com/p/events/2021drivethru
Yochanan reviewed seeing the first 3 episodes of 8 for 'The Mysterious Benedict Society' on Disney Plus as he is really liking it. It is a quirky show with quirky characters & he highly recommends it. Lisa followed-on that it is a show meant for teens and not for little kids.
we adjourned at 8:35 pm
and the rumor of the week = 'Any Dave will do... in a Storm'
