The Russische Nationalballett

Justin and I both had Sunday off and I had seen signs around for the Russian National Ballet for that night. It's been a while since I'd seen a ballet, let alone been in one so I was excited to go. Justin had never been to a ballet I think so he wasn't as excited but still it was something to do and how many chances would we get to see the Russian National Ballet in Garmisch? So we walked down to the Kongress Hall which is a facility with several conference/show rooms. We were 45 min early for the ticket sales so we walked around the Marienplatz for a while and then returned and got in line for the tickets. We realized when we were second in line that the tickets weren't 10 euro like we thought and the cheapest ones were 26 euro each. This meant we were 2 euros short. We happened to see Tom and Anna(Ski and Snow board instr that work with Justin) in like behind us. Justin went to talk to them, got two Euro, and gave them the heads up on the price because they didn't have enough either so Anna ran to the atm. Once all of our tickets were purchased we walked to the gleuwein stand and had a drink while we waited for the show to start as it was still another 45 min. The show was great. I hoped there would be a theme like The Nutcracker or something but I couldn't figure it out if their was one. There were some really cute local girls and one little boy that danced too. It was a great night.
On Wednesday afternoon the Jura City Biathalon was happening in the Marienplatz. After work I went to base to get some groceries then walked to town and watched for about a half hour as the racers warmed up. I brought the food home and then went back into town for the evening. I met up with Justin and several of his coworkers and we watched the races and then some ATVs race at the end. We went to the after party for a little while before going to Rambutan, a local asian place, for dinner. Interesting decor inside the restaurant. Lots of fun and very interesting couple of days!
