She met a lot of her mother's old friends, like Frank, who ran the hospitality suite...
...and a funny robot dog that seemed to know her mama quite well...
...who was owned by still another friend of her mama's, the Doctrix, who lived in a strange blue box.
Some of her mama's friends were, admittedly, a bit...odd. Take Betelgeuse, for example.
Others, like Don, were very nice.
Mama's friend Kathie was not only super nice, but exceptionally pretty.
Not to be outdone, Cherry made some new friends of her very own. One was the human personification of a...pony?
She also befriended a lovely creature her own size, who had her own human to take care of, so she could not go home with Cherry (sadlly).
One of the best things about attending conventions is finding people with similar interests. Cherry found someone who shared her love of unicorns! They sang the "Despicable Me" Unicorn Song together. For HOURS.
Cherry planned to enter the costume contest as Mi-na from The Doll Master on Saturday night, but her mama got taken to a room party and...partied a little too hard. Cherry wasn't terribly disappointed, but she was a little embarrassed when Mama started singing Sailor Moon karaoke. In the Star Wars room.
But Cherry still got to wear plenty of pretty clothes at the convention, and meet a great many new friends, so it was all good.
She even got filmed for the local news report on Sunday. Just her, not her mama. :B
All in all, it was a wonderfully fun weekend for both Cherry and her mama and they can't wait to go again next year!
The end.
