The Opera

For $14 you can get seats in your own box at the Bratislava Opera House. Kathryn, Mamura and I decided to "get some culture" and went to see MacBeth last week. Interesting; play written in English, opera sung in Italian (it was Verdi) and subtitles on the screen in Slovak. I have to admit to being quite bored until they started killing people off. We also had a moment of hysterical, silent, crying laughter at one point. Yes, the opera really touched us - a true Pretty Woman moment. I was even able to dash across to McDonald's for a quick cheeseburger during one of the intermissions. Classy!
