| Me and Tom Cavanagh |
Even thought I wasn't going to be in the parade, we still headed down to the con pretty early. We were going to get some autographs and then leave the con to do some other things.
We got in line to meet Tom Cavanagh who plays Dr. Wells in The Flash tv series. We had to wait for a while, but finally he showed up. He was really nice, and I got my picture with him.
Next we met Mike Coulter who plays Luke Cage in the Netflix Marvel shows. He was also super nice. We got a picture with him and wow, he smelled good. He's a nice looking man and I was a little swoony after
him. Thankfully Todd is not a jealous husband!
We met Catherine Tate who is Donna in Doctor Who and got our autograph. She was awesome! She is my Doctor Who companion so I was excited to meet her. We did tell her we'd be back with our daughter the next day for a picture.

The last person we met was also a Doctor Who guest. It was Pearl Mackie who plays companion Bill Potts. She was in a separate room - same room as the 12th Doctor, Peter Capaldi. He had a long line but she didn't. We got to talk to her for several minutes and got our picture with her. She was super nice and very tall!
After that, the con was getting crowded so we headed off. We took the train to the Center for Puppetry Arts. The only issue was that the museum was several blocks away from the train and it took us about 15 minutes to walk there. I was feeling pretty tired, but we got our
tickets and went into the museum.
The first place we went was the new Dark Crystal exhibit. They had all kinds of puppets from that movie, and it was so cool. Dark Crystal is one of childhood favorites. So seeing those was really a blast from my childhood. Todd's too.
We went to the other exhibits afterwards. They had historical puppets and puppets from different areas of the world. They also had a whole section that was just Jim Henson's Muppets. It was really cool! We got to see Big Bird and Kermit and I nearly cried when I saw Emmett Otter and his Ma. I wasn't expecting that and I love that show. They also had a replica of Jim Henson's office. Just all the puppets I've ever loved in my life in one spot!
Todd and I agreed that we would need to take Emily there at some point too. It didn't take us long to tour the whole museum but it was beyond cool.
After that, we went to the mall. Hit up the Disney store and a few others before heading back. I was not feeling great so I need to rest up for our last day at the con!
Up Next - Sunday!
