So Fata and Melanie are here visiting for the weekend, and it's nice to have some people here to have adventures with. I picked them up yesterday from the airport and made them a great breakfast of chocolate chip stars and initials pancakes, as well as eggs, bacon and sausage. I'm getting pretty domestic.

Then we had lunch at Ruby's, which is now the place where I take all the out of towners. We hung out at the pier for a bit and I took some pictures of the surfer dudes. Soon I'll have to make a whole gallery of my surfer dude pictures. Here's a couple...

And then I took them to L&L Barbeque for some Hawaiian food, and we feasted. Yum! Afterwards, we headed over to Downtown Disney to check out the sites, unfortunately, we didn't have much time left there since we were stuffing our faces with Hawaiian BBQ for so long.

But when we got to Downtown Disney, we were walking around, then a security guard came up to us and asked us if we wanted tickets to a concert. Of course, I'd never pass up free tickets, and I asked when they were for. Turns out they were tickets for a concert that night. I asked him who, and he had no idea....he had to look at the ticket to figure out who it was. I guess there weren't a lot of people at the concert if security was handing out tickets.

And do you know who it was for? Do ya? Do ya?

I'll give you a hint:

And if you're thinking Ricky Martin, wrong. I saw him several years ago during the 'La Vida Loca' craze. No, I'm talking about my OTHER favorite member of Menudo, Robi Rosa!

So I couldn't help myself. I talked the girls into going. I just HAD to see what he looks like now, and hey, the tix were free! So we went to the House of Blues, and unfortunately, I had to check in my camera. We've never been apart like that before, but I found the security guard who was watching Cammie II to be pretty trustworthy.

We got into the concert hall, and it was pretty full, I'm surprised they were handing out the free tickets. Robi looks pretty much the same, just a little bit older. And a lot buffer. Whoo! But I had no idea what songs he was singing. I just wanted to yell - 'Do Cannonball!' Actually, I think someone in the audience was already yelling for him to do that. Unfortunately, he's left his Menudo bubblegum pop behind him and has gone for a more edgy rock feel. Hmph.

Well, he still looks good!
