Shanghai - Dinner and Acrobats

We got to our hotel, nice! 

Then they took us to dinner which was really similar to lunch. I took better pics though. 



SOOOO much food. We didn't have snake, but they had a jar of snakes there. 


From there, we went to an acrobats show called Era. It was pretty amazing. The outfits, stage and lighting wasn't too great but the talent was amazing!!! They did all the typical Chinese acrobat tricks. 
The motorcycle globe had 7 motorcycles in there!!! Crazy! Another thing unloved about it was that we were seated really close to the stage. So all the dangerous tricks freaked me out!!

ERA - theater

Another funny thing was that it was dark and we were tired, it was so hard to stay awake even though it was a good show! This lady, Prima, that sat next to me liked reacting to the dangerous stuff and she'd grab my leg or arm whenever it looked like someone would fall ... But all of the sudden, someone would do something crazy and I'd look over and she would be asleep! No reaction! The girl to my other side, slept the whole second half!! Ha!

Got home. Dead tired. Slept sooo good!!

  1. You must have been REALLY tired: all the dangerous tricks freaked you out? This is Jeannie who goes to metal shows where they do other types of dangerous tricks and she is always front row, and doesn't bat an eye - maybe yells for more? Ha ha. I'm so glad you got some good sleep! Maybe you would have started kicking kids in the street for staring...
