One of the Best People

My Canadian Surrogate Mother, Joyce tells this story of her visit to Vienna and how she was denied an opportunity to purchase a ticket to the opera because of her dress. The ticket seller told her the opera was for the best people. In Munich, I was one of the best people. One of the things, I have been looking forward to the most with my visit to Europe was seeing the Bayerische Staatoper production of Madama Butterfly. How wonderful it was?!?! Everything was complete indescribably beautiful…the building, costumes, set and performance. Here’s a picture of the view from my seat, which was on the same tier as the Royal Box and one of the many chandeliers.
