Guilin Show

Yesterday we really shopped around mostly for Maddie’s B-day, but at 7pm Dad had booked us for an acrobatic kind of show. Yesterday we had walked (it seemed like) EVERYWHERE! So when we finally got back to lay Megan down for her nap we were all ready for one! So we were thinking that maybe we should just cancel the show and walk around the city more because of all the beautiful lights at night, but we just resorted to go to the show any way, though some of us were reluctant. When we got there we found our seats; there were quite a few people there! So the show started! Before we left for the theater mom gave us 2 York Peppermint Patties to eat at the show, I was so consumed that I forgot to eat them! The show was the most amazing live performance I’ve EVER been to!!! There was awesome acrobatics, graceful but difficult ballet, and perfectly maneuvered dances! There was one acrobat couple that caught my interest. I will try to describe their performance, but it will be hard, it’s only truly amazing in person. They had one rope that they climbed up and then the man would hold onto the rope. Then the lady would intertwine her legs with the man’s and let go! Only hanging from his legs they would spin around and around!!! They did a lot of tricks like this. All the ballerinas had toe shoes and would do beautiful plies! Then there were also these men that did triple back flips, cartwheels and jumped from one pole to another! The show was spectacular and I’d be so disappointed if I had missed it!!!

These are the acrobats and ballerinas! We were not permitted to take pics in the theater 🙁 .
