Marianela Nuñez

This morning I spent the morning with my niece and nephew at the soft play. They were on a flying visit on the way to Hampshire for the weekend. It was lovely to see them and I got lots of cuddles and squishes.

Off to London again this afternoon with Carys for ballet class, then on to see Don Quixote at the Opera House. I can't really explain how good it was. I don't have the words. Marianela and Vadim are made to dance together it seems. There was a standing ovation, which I don't remember happening before. After we waited patiently at stage door. We saw the lovely Gary Avis, who gave us both hugs, had a quick chat and dashed off for his train. C had photos with Ryoichi Hirano and Vadim Muntagirov. Then we waited and waited. 75mins after the show ended Marianela finally came out. She was lovely and was happy to have a photo with C, which was what we were waiting for. (Carys did miss Carlos Acosta while we were talking to Gary, but Gary has said he'll get her his autograph. Fingers crossed.)

So I have one very happy but very tired lady. Thankfully she can lie in tomorrow.
