November 24 - December 23, 2001 Cow Palace Exhibition Hall Once again GBACG traveled back to London in the mid 19th century to enjoy the sights and sounds and lively streets of Charles Dickens' London.

She was very pretty: exceedingly pretty. With a dimpled, surprised-looking capital face; a ripe little mouth, that seemed made to be kissed --- as no doubt it was; all kinds of good little dots about her chin, that melted into one another when she laughed; and the sunniest pair of eyes you ever saw in any little creature's head. Altogether she was what you would have called provoking, you know; but satisfactory, too. Oh, perfectly satisfactory. The Second of the Three Spirits, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens |

Chapter LXV, Nicholas Nickelby by Charles Dickens |
