July 6, 2008— in Orange

This morning we had our first singing gig, at First Presbyterian Orange The boys sang well. As in every performance, there is always one piece that has unexpected problems (Ride the Chariot this time), so we'll fix that tomorrow in rehearsal. We went to Watson's for a large, soda fountain lunch. After lunch we went to the Bowers Museum to see the Chinese terra cotta warrior exhibit (no pictures allowed inside). We had some extra time, so we went to the park, but we hadn't brought casual clothes so we had the boys roll up their pants and take off their dress shoes and socks. Boys went home with their host families for dinner and overnight.
