Cirque Dreams

For Christmas Mark's parents gifted us some awesome tickets to Cirque Dreams; Jungle Fantasy. I've always wanted to see a Cirque du Soleil show, and though not actually affiliated to them, it fulfilled my oohs and aahs of circus life without the creepy clowns or mistreated animals. It was a fun night of colorfully costumed, international performers who contorted, flew and juggled their way to an incredible evening. It was fun to be surrounded by audible gasps of excitement. I loved sitting next to Emma who, one minute would be watching jaw-dropped in utter amazement, the next watching through the slits of her fingers covering her eyes hoping that these graceful aerialists wouldn't plummet to their deaths. Her new life goal; to become as 'bendy' as her new contortionist idols. 

As an added bonus, we ran in to lots of Emma's friends at the show. It was truly one of the most entertaining shows that we have been to.
