Springtime in Washington




Today was amazing. Sun. Flowers. Everything was just lovely. We all arrived in Washington safe and sound- the van group even arrived in time to see the Pope as his motorcade came down the street where they were sitting having lunch. This afternoon we were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Nowotny for a reception. Eva Nowotny is the Austrian Ambassador to the US and Mr. Nowotny was a 1959 Hope graduate. He spoke very eloquently about his time at Hope and his fondness for the formitive time that he spent with excellent professors and experiences in Holland. Off we went to the Kennedy Center in the evening to see the University of Oklahoma's production. As we walked up to the Kennedy Center we saw the poster for the festival- which is a picture of our very own ROSE with the RIME WITCH! WOW!!! We are so anxious to perform ROSE. Tomorrow we load in starting at 6:45am. It will be a VERY long day- but I am sure the excitement and adrenaline will carry us through. just hours now.....
