SEATTLE OPERA - DON GIOVANNI
Get dressed in your Sunday best for an afternoon of lavish costumes, gorgeous music, and the twisted tales for which opera is so famous.
The Seattle Opera's new production, Don Giovanni, is irresistible to everyone. No less captivating are the opera's arias, which require exceptional range and breath control. Experience Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's exceptional music and Don Giovanni's notorious seduction. Libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte, in Italian with English captions.
This is a great opportunity to enjoy the world famous performance at McCaw Hall. Prior to the show you'll enjoy a leisurely buffet brunch at the Ivar's Salmon House on the scenic shores of Lake Union.

LUNCH BUNCH
Join us once a month for lunch in the fine company of your Nikkei Horizons comrades.
These outings are a fun way to stay connected with your peers and try new and different restaurants around Puget Sound. Often there's a little time for shopping or sightseeing along the way, as well.
The first outing is decided for you, and the last two will be decided by the group from a list of options presented by your escort. Price includes transportation and lunch for your escort and driver (this is a necessary adjustment from last quarter). Participants pay for their own meal.
You may join us for all three outings, or just one or two, but be sure to let us know on your registration form which dates you'll attend.
Our first lunch will be at Imperial Garden Seafood Restaurant in the Great Wall Mall in Kent. This will be the first Dim Sum experience for our Lunch Bunch!

Guided Tour: SBC/PL (Limit: 22)
