Monday night Aimee and I made a visit to the Magic Castle, a private magic club in Hollywood that is typically open only to members and their guests. We are lucky to know a guy who performs there occasionally and he was kind enough to put us on his guest list for the night.
The 'castle' is actually an old Victorian-style mansion built over a hundred years ago and now serves as a performance venue for magicians and as an Academy of Magic. There are a number of different rooms and theatres of different sizes inside the mansion that feature various performers throughout the night.
In this picture above, Aimee was selected to be seated in a prime spot for a show in the close-up gallery. That was a lot of fun as she got to participate in the act that involved some coin tricks.
(My trick was getting the picture taken without being noticed - there's no photography allowed in the club beyond the lobby. I think my experience taking photos at Pebble Beach, where it's also not allowed, helped out here.)
We took a picture in the lobby before we left. It was a fun night and we'll look forward to going back for another visit someday.
