I never expected the theater to be so old or ornate based on the exterior the first time we went there... after that I knew we had to do a tour when we went back! :) The B&B is amazing. I love everything about it. It's pricier than what we usually pay for.. so it's great for special occasions. :) Thank you for reading! -AlexandraSimply Alexandra // My Favorite Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10005714012822874818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450106821547345955.post-61147545149228659442014-05-30T12:27:43.763-05:002014-05-30T12:27:43.763-05:00Jen, it's so fun to see!

Just about 5 hours. We go to a lot of concerts there. Not just at the Fox... but all over really. I've heard really good things about the city museum & zoo as well.
