We See AVATAR!!!!

We accompanied our friends Jan, Von and Dale on a 100 mile round trip to see Avatar in 3D at an IMAX theater. Unfortunately, none of us purchased advance tickets online. So, we arrived about at the AMC IMAX in Glendale AZ about noon and found that the next available IMAX Avatar show was at 4:30 PM. We all made the decision to wait over 4 hours to see the show.

We spent an hour or so having lunch at Margaritaville...nice atmosphere and over-priced food and drinks.

We then walked around the mall, took some photos, and spent some relaxing time in the lounge chairs provided by the mall. While Jan and Von enjoyed a drink at a local bar (Nancy had water), Dale and I took a great walk to the Cardinals Stadium. About 3:30 we walked to the theater and got in line for the 4:30 showing.

As far as I am concerned it was all worth it. The story was interesting and the special effects were fantastic. The fact that this was a "tree hugger" advertisement did not bother me at all. I had a great time!
