Last Friday night, got a chance to watch the Beijing Acrobats with my friend Ennlee. It was my first time seeing them perform, and the show did not disappoint. Since no picture-taking was allowed, I found these pictures on google. Basically, these pictures looked very much the same as what I saw in the live performance.


My favorite segment was "sitting in high chair". When the guy climbed on the chairs, I could literally see the whole stack of chairs shake! It was pretty tense.



After the show, some of the acrobat performers were in the lobby helping to sell souvenirs. I wish I had asked them for a quick picture before leaving.

On an unrelated note, I saw this camera (maybe a different model) at Costco, it's the Lumix with 12 MP, very sleek design.


It comes with features like face recognition, and better shutter speed to capture picture in motion. What got me was that after rebate, Costco is selling it for like $170, that is just slightly more than what I paid for my 4.2 MP Sony Cybershot (which I got few yrs back). I'm so jealous, technology has moved so fast, and the price is getting better nowdays. Ugh.
