The Langley Murder Mystery weekend is finally here. I have headed to Whidbey Island twice now for information and photos, but now the murder has happened, and as Sherlock is known to say, the game is afoot.
We picked Sarah’s parents up at the airport. We were pretty late because of packing and having to get a school application in for Sarah. Their plane was also early. However, we eventually got there, and headed for Bellevue, where we had lunch at Din Tai Fung. I think Sarah’s parents really enjoyed it.
From there, we headed for the ferry, and only had to wait about 15 minutes. We got to town and actually managed to sign up for the mystery early. After the cocktail reception at the Saratoga Inn, Sarah and I sat down in the common area and studied–she the newspaper, and me my character. I am surprised by the amount of information that I had, and needed to get my life together, so I knew what I had done. In addition, I needed to come up with several jokes, as I am supposed to be an aspiring comedian. That is the part that I am most worried about, since I’m not too good with jokes anymore. I’m sure I’ll do fine, though.
