Chinese Acrobatics

After the wonderful foot massage, we were later brought to the acrobatic theatre to see a show. Truth be told, I am not a great fan of chinese acrobatics or acrobatics of any kind. Usually, when it comes on TV, I'd switch channel to watch..oh, shows like CSI, CSI NY, CSI Miami, LOST, you know, interesting shows.

But watching it life that day changed my opinion. Ya, it wasn't a very graceful performance. Well, it wasn't exactly ice skating, but I can tell you, these young men and women were good. Very good in fact! I was awed at their agile bodies, strength and gravity-defying stunts!

I will just let the pics speak for themselves. Sorry some of them are rather blur. We were sitted really far from the stage and my fingers were shaking, from cold and hunger!







My wife actually said "wow, what gorgeous bodies!" or something to that effect when these 2 half naked guys performed. Now, such a statement coming from my conservative other half must surely mean something. I must say they really had great physiques. I wonder which gym do they go to and how much eggs+capsicum+tomatoes+twisted cakois (read my article "Breakfast in Beijing") to get that awesome bod!
