So that went off without a hitch! Who'd have thunk it?

The 'comet party' was a complete success! The turnout was almost exactly as we planned it to be and the comets were really cool! Best of all, I think the princesses BOTH had a really great time! Princess Luna ended up surrounded by fillies and foals, and she explained space and stars and time. It was really cool! She drew pictures in the sky as if it were a chalkboard, and she told stories of the constellations. I think it was really healing for her, to know so many ponies turned up just so that they might talk to her! AND BEST OF ALL EVERYPONY LOVED MY NACHOS!!!

YES!!

It's a little bit weird, though. Twilight said there was only supposed to be one comet tonight, but instead there were two. We asked Luna about it. She said she had no idea where the second one came from. Twilight started making predictions about how it wasn't a comet at all, and Rainbow Dash said we needed to get some tin foil hats so the aliens couldn't read our thoughts. Twilight quit talking about it, after that, but I think it was really bothering her. She didn't bring it up again, though. I wonder what it was...

Twilight said from the really odd trajectory and surprising appearance, the (second) meteor would have had to strike down quite a few miles outside of town. We might be able to spend a day or so hiking out over there to see if we could find it. It's up near the mountains so it won't be anytime soon. Might be a weekend thing, though. I'd like to go, sounds like fun.
