Symphony of the Goddesses Concert Impressions
posted by Lisa
For our four year anniversary gift to ourselves, David and I went to the Symphony of the Goddesses. It is a four part symphony of Zelda music. While my husband and I are huge fans of Zelda – and we thoroughly enjoyed the symphony – we did not dress up as Zelda or Link. Let me tell you, there were some excellent and detailed costumes there. One man had the fairy Navi sitting on his shoulder, which lit up every few seconds. ~ Movement 1: Ocarina of Time~ I am ashamed to say that Ocarina of Timeis a Zelda game that I have not played. I do plan on playing it soon, and I enjoyed the music. However, I think my husband...

Firstly, what does a rescue team look like? don’t they wear fun coordinated “rescue team” outfits? Also, why would anyone send a rescue team to a prison taken over my...
