About the Singing Bears:
Dressed formally in white tie and tails, Leonard Bearstein conducts an 18-piece animatronic Symphony Orchestra of bears. The orchestra sections consist of a string section (3 violins, 2 cellos, and 1 bass), the Brass section (2 trumpets, 1 French horn), the woodwinds (1 clarinet and 1 saxophone), and the percussion section (2 drummers and 1 chime). The vocal selections are performed by the elegantly attired "Not So Bearly Singers" trio, who provide much of the banter during the 43-minute program.
Well, the Parker twins once again proved that they do not do what everyone else's kids do.
When we walked in to the atrium, Aidan rushed to the railing and was captivated - for about two minutes. Then he discovered that the room was huge and had lots of places to run about....and that the atrium echoed!
Ella would not go near the bears. She did sit on a bench for a few minutes and watch them, but quickly decided that the bears must somehow be in cahoots with Santa, and thus they are to be feared in a big way. The tears began to flow and she would not even look at the bears - she just clung to either Mike or myself.
Oh well, just like with our Santa experience, there is always next year!
