Intercontinental Hotel

Last Thursday our school choir went to a very fancy 5 star hotel to perform at their Lighting of the Christmas Tree ceremony. We were planning on singing five songs, but then they only gave us time to sing three. "Rock and roll snow man", "Winter Fantasy", and "Peaceful", basically repeating some of the songs we sang at the Christmas Bazaar. We left school at 5:30 to get to the Intercontinental Hotel because it was a ways away. When we got there we got red scarfs and Santa hats to wear, which none of the older kids were very thrilled about. After we had briefly warmed up, we went into the restaurant to eat pizza, but we didn't get very much since the little kids ate almost all of it. Right after that we had a quickly wash our hands so we could go on stage to perform. Then we went on stage to perform our three songs, which I think went pretty well. The thing that surprised me was that there was a lot of people from our class there and some of our teachers, which made us all sort of nervous. After that, we went backstage to get ready to leave, but we didn't leave for a while because the little kids wanted to stay a while to watch the other performances. There was a magician, two singers, and dancers. Then we left and got cookies from the hotel people, which were coated in sugar and tasted really good. Overall, it was a pretty good evening.

I will have pictures up by the 3rd of December.
