Yesterday we decided to take a break from yard work and enjoy ourselves (it was also 100 degrees and we didn't really want to be outside). In the morning we went to see "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian". We have been wanting to see it, but with everything that had gone on we kept putting it off. We realized it probably wouldn't be in the theaters much longer, so we better go while we can. I read this book a year or more ago, but we recently listened to the book on C.D.'s when we drove down to Disneyland. We both enjoy the Chronicles of Narnia series and were excited to see the movie. Our opinions on the movie are a little different. Rich liked the movie more than me. I was pretty disappointed and was upset they changed the story somewhat. I have a hard time when the stories of good books are changed when making a movie. I also envisioned some of the characters different while reading the story, so it was hard to see all the actors as their character. I think if I watch it again on DVD I will probably end up liking it. I think I was so excited and had such high hopes that I was a little let down.
Lisa's Rating: B-
Rich's Rating: B+
Later in the day we were treated to dinner at Dos Coyotes by our friends, the Normans. They are a great couple and we enjoy spending time with them and their family. Rich has eaten there before, but this was my first time. We both enjoyed burritos and the conversation.
