On Friday my mom, some friends and I went to the Cape Town Convention Centre for the much awaited for show. We got there with half an hour to spare in order to secure some fantastic seats. My mom worked her charm with the security staff and managed to get us prime seats in the 4th row (we didn't want seats in the front in case the kids got frightened - which wasn't the case in the end)!
Nina and the Neurons came on first and although Lily and her little friends were excited to see her, I think it was a little too advanced for them so it didn't maintain their concentration for the entire 30 minutes she was on stage. It was lovely to see them watching her in absolute awe when she first came onto the stage. Totally and utterly worth the effort to get to the show.
And then of course it was time for Barney's grand appearance and the main reason for us being there! Lily and her friends were so excited to see him and their faces were worth a thousand words when he eventually appeared. It was actually so emotional watching them that my mom, Nicole, Kim and I just got so teary! Ridiculous that we were teary eyed over a large purple disosaur but I suppose that's what having kids does to you! Lily was in awe and just wanted to get closer to the stage so we eventually crept to the front and sat on the floor. Shame, she couldn't understand why she couldn't hold Barney's hand and was quite disappointed when the show finished and she didn't get to say a personal goodbye to him. Bless, so cute!
Here are some pictures of our time at the fun Barney show:
