Chinese State Circus.
ROCKS!
(il leave more detailed information when i can be arsed)
... now i can be arsed.
So i gotta see Hoop divers who could flip about a dozen foot into the air unaided, a slack wire walker who could do headstands on the rope! Tight wire walkers who could do somersaults over each other and land on the other side. Contortionists who could bend... everywhere, a chinese strongman who could whirl a giant heavy glave... around his neck! Jar Jugglers who could throw large pottery onto each others heads and balance it before launching it to their partners. A woman who could take a mask off and replace it with another in as fast as it takes you to wave your hand fin front of your face. Also ever seen 'House of Flying Daggers'? well if not imagine a lady wearing this dress:

Now the long sleeves were placed on the floor with the ends next to another assistant lady in an equally elegant dress. Two knives were placed on the ends of the sleeves and two baloons placed either side of the assistants head. With a flick of the sleeves the knives flew up from the floor and pierced both baloons. It was absolutley amazing. Last but not least there were the Shaolin Monks who i think very highly of for their martial arts expertiese, they are the greatest martial artists on the planet in my opinion and were incredible, but admitidley not as impressive as alot of the other acts.
Very Cool. Soo want to go to Tibet now and go to the Shaolin Temple.
