Toronto, ON - I took my Mom out for her birthday to see
Cirque du Soleil's Alegria at Ontario Place the other night. I've seen a lot of little bits of Cirque du Soleil on TV before but seeing it live and in person was really cool. There were a few clown bits that were kind of boring and a little too long, but the acrobatics and gymnastics were absolutely awesome. Even though it's happening right in front of you, it's hard not to think that it can't possibly be a real human being doing what you just saw. I now have this really strong urge to fly to Las Vegas and do a marathon of all the Cirque shows that are playing there. I have to look into this.
