Well, this is it...our final night in Düsseldorf!! Living here has been surreal, almost like our lives are just on hold, waiting to get past this phase until we can start living our real lives again. Tomorrow morning, we head back to Louisville, back to our family and friends, back to the future of our lives. So, what better thing to do for our last night in Düsseldorf than watch "Back to the Future"? And we're not talking about the 3 DVDs of it we brought (which we already watched several times this summer, by the way). We're talking, on the big screen, at the theaters, popcorn and a soda! We took it as a sign from God that we were meant to go watch it since all 3 of those movies are in our list of favorite movies of all time, and it was playing on our last night here, and in English. What a great decision! We walk in, and right there in the lobby was a Delorean!

Sadly, no flux capacitor was inside. So before the movie started, a guy spoke to the audience, thanking the people who got the Dolorean there and thanking the fans for finally making this happen. He made the comment that maybe they can one day get parts 2 and 3 of the movie to play, too. Suprisingly, when the movie started, it wasn't part 1, but actually part 3! Someone yelled out, "This is a surprise!" I was so excited, though, since the 3rd one is my favorite! It was everything I hoped it would be and more. So much fun to see it on the big screen - so funny, so exciting, even though I've seen it a million times and could quote all the lines. What a geat note to end on. In the words of Doc at the very end, "Your future is whatever you make it. So make it a good one - both of ya!" Will do, Doc, will do.


It was awesome, I love those pictures
ReplyDeleteHa- you are so cute and funny :-)
ReplyDeleteMy fav part of part 3 is when Doc is holding his shot of whiskey,and telling all the saloon patrons of "the future". He says there is no need for horses, we have automobiles. One of the guys in the saloon says, "don't anybody walk anymore?" and Doc says, "Yes, but for recreational purposes." And then the guy says, "Run for fun? What the hell kind of fun is that?"
I love that comment, because that's exactly what I think every time you tell me you're going running. LOL :-)
You have just inspired us to watch Back to the Future! Apparently Jon has never seen the first one...oh my gosh! What great movies!! Thanks Megan! See you soon!
