The nut meets The Nutcracker

On our way to see The Nutcracker at the San Jose Center for the Performing Arts with Amalia's Daisy Troop.
 On the train. 
 Amalia and Caroline
 Troop 62098 all dressed up. 
 The Girl Scouts got a special pre-show backstage tour! Here Amalia is inside one of the props.
 Our tour guide (a senior Girl Scout). 
The magical Drosselmeyer clock.
 Apparently Jerry was performing the night the Giants clinched the NLCS. 
 The seamstress feverishly working to get all the costumes ready. 
 More backstage workshop activities,

Amalia enjoyed the show (which I could not take pictures of). For those who recall her impression of the Sleeping Beauty ballet we attended earlier this year, we were about 18 rows back this time so certain things were less distracting. Plus, I do think many of the pants were looser.
