For the third year, Bennett has a part in the Lake Placid Performing Arts Center performance of the Nutcracker Ballet. He is playing Fritz, Clara’s brother and does an excellent job. We were allowed to take pictures at the dress rehearsal the day before the actual performance so we could share them with you. No photos allowed during the actual performance.
In case anyone wonders, it is cold in upstate New York. After the rehearsal, we spent the evening at the Wild Center, a museum in Tupper Lake to see their holiday lights display. We wandered the grounds for about an hour in 15-17 degree cold. As there was snow on the ground we really had to walk carefully but, fortunately, no slipups. One of the features of the program was lights decorating the stick house that we saw during our a previous visit. It really looked great at night.
Having had enough cold, we went into the museum building where Bennett enjoyed a VR experience flying through an ancient landscape. The device has a fan in front of the travelers head so the experience is not just visual, it does seem as if you are flying. The screen in the background shows what the flyer is seeing but not in 3D.
