Cirque du Soleil was Awesome!

Thursday Ger and I went to Cirque du Soleil's traveling show "Corteo" in Portland. It was so entertaining! We were kinda lost with the story, but all the acts were spectacular. We saw the littlest people ever, and one of the biggest. This was one of the coolest live performances I have ever seen.

Ger in front of the tents, I took the picture so I have to admit that it isn't good of either Ger or the tents, but you can kinda see it...

See what I mean? That woman is like 3 feet tall, and the man might be 8 feet tall. This act was hilarious! She was being held up by 4 huge balloons, and he would push her all over the tent. It was pretty cool-- like the beach balls in the crowd at a football game.

We have rented some of the Cirque du Soleil DVD's through Netflix. I agree the stories are a bit strange, but the acts are incredible. I would love to see a live performance some day!
