Medieval Times...almost
I rember wanting to do something special for her this time last year since she was supposed to be leaving MEPCOM and since I was a sucker for doing birthday surprises I figured that a trip Medieval Times might be an idea. But, in order to make sure she would be up for something like that I would have needed to ask some open-ended questions to keep her off my trail. I would need to ask if she had ever been around any animals close-up, and if she had any allergies to dust or dirt. I would also have needed to ask if she had any isues with strobe lights and such. Then I could tell her that we were going to do something cool for her birthday - but I would not have revealed 'what' until the last minute. (This was similar to how I surprised my cousin with a trip there, and he caught on when we arrived about 2 minutes away, lol) I had my questions ready to ask...but then...she informed me that she would be TDY on the week of her birthday.
All was not lost, though. She got some sun in Hawaii.
:D
