Kooza!
 
As I mentioned in the previous post, I met up with Tammy late Saturday afternoon to go see Cirque du Soleil Kooza. Tammy bought the tickets back in October and this was to celebrate our birthdays (2 days apart), Christmas and just for being great moms. Knowing we would be early birds, we went for the 4 pm show. I’ve never been to a cirque show and didn’t really know what to expect! It was quite fascinating! Lots of acrobatics and clown acts. It really was quite entertaining although I did get chills during what we ended up calling the ‘spineless act.’ Two young ladies who could bend in ways you never thought a person could bend. My favorites were the wheel of death and teeterboard (see the description under Acts in the above link). Photography wasn’t allowed inside but I did take a shot to show how close we were to the stage. The whole arena was pretty small, I thought it was going to be huge buidling. I’ve never been to Randall’s Island so I hadn’t a clue! We took the water taxi up and it was a pleasant ride! Afterwards, we had dinner at Jackson Hole and got stuffed!
The ride up:

The tent
The stage
And the ride back!

I thought the wheel of death guys looked both scary and fun as hell at the same time. And I also really liked the asian guy who balanced on all the chairs, which I thought was really beautiful and graceful.
