The Ultimate Mancini

Last night, the hubby took me out on a unique date. We took the bus from Chatsworth to the Hollywood Bowl to witness the performance of the LA Philharmonic Orchestra led by Bill Conti in paying tribute to the award-winning composer, conductor, and arranger Henry Mancini. Mancini's great works include Moon River, The Pink Panther, Charade, and Peter Gunn. His daughter Monica Mancini was also there to sing some of his hits. It was such an experience! 

We brought with us a cooler packed with some turkey wraps, shrimp pasta, rice krispies, chocolates, and of course a bottle of sweet red wine.

 Despite the fact that we were in the middle of Hollywood, it didn't seem like we were in LA! The beautiful music, the stars above us, the loving couples made the night very romantic! Towards the end of the night they displayed a fireworks show that seemed to dance with the music of the orchestra. It was such a moment to behold.
