Photo Gallery: WRAL visit and Bullwinkles
Posted by Michelle on Feb 22, 2006 in Hayley
Sleepover with two seven year olds – insane but it got better during the day.
I took Hayley and her friend to the TV station I used to work at for a tour from my old boss John who is head of interactive media. It was awesome! We got to watch a live broadcast from the level above it. Hayley got to meet her favorite news person meteorologist Elizabeth Gardner (she LOVES her).
We saw how a story develops from the news desk to the room where reporters assign stories, editing bay, master control extra sets and all sorts of things. Completely awesome for the kids.
Hayley and her friend got to sit at desk on the 2nd set and Hayley was like a natural! It was nutty, she just started broadcasting like a pro… you can tell this kid has watched a lot of news!!!! She was so poised, John and I just stood there with our mouths open!
Then the kids went nuts on the fountain outside – thank goodness they could run around and get the willies out. So we had a blast there.
Then we went to Bullwinkles for games and lunch. I hit the bonus on a game and won 212 tickets on one token! And Hayley actually won a stuffed animal on one of those crane games – unbelievable!
We came home, played lacrosse and they goofed off with bikes, scooters and green machine. I want to pass out for about 1,000 hours.
