A Basketball Day

We went to the Harlem Globetrotters game/show today. We all had lots of fun.
Here's the view from inside the stadium. These windows are only a LITTLE impressive huh? What is more impressive? The beautiful blue sky and the 70 degree temperature outside.
We got to the game early for the pre-game clinic. I guess there weren't enough people for that, so they changed plans and we got to meet and greet with some of the players instead. Very Cool.  Look how tall the players≠“ are.  I had to get on the ground to be able to get them, and shorty Quinn, in the picture.
Jumbo screens.  Super helpful to see some of what was going on.
The entrance of the Globetrotters.  They played "4 Minutes" as they came out. The Washington Generals, the opponent, did not have as spectacular an introduction.

Game time! They played awhile, then they would stop and goof around, play some more etc. It really was a lot of fun.

Word for the day: Beautiful. It was nice and warm. We ended up walking around University Ave. in Palo Alto, and ended our day with dinner at California Pizza Kitchen.
