Royal Opera House
This week we had the chance to take a homeschooling field trip! With the two other girls in school, we haven’t done as many fieldtrips as we have in the past. But, when a group of women from church were going to check out the Royal Opera for a free lunch time concert, I thought it was the perfect field trip!
Cami has been insisting for the last year or so that she wants to be an opera singer when she grows up. I thought this would be a great time for her to see what that really entails. Sadly, with it being a lunch-time concert, it was in a long hall, rather than having a stage. Our group didn’t come with our tickets until close to the start-time so our seats were in the back of the room. I was so sad that we weren’t able to see the instruments and experience it up-close and personal . . . for the kids.
Both Caleb and Cami found it boring and long, but I loved sitting there listening to the music. Maybe sometime we’ll have to do it again . . and sit closer.
Cami did enjoy walking around to see the different costumes from various operas and ballets. This tutu was her favorite!
