I went out with Lisa today so that we could attend the Cirque du Soleil: Dralion since they're here in Montreal from December 18th until the 30th

We first went to a bakery that sold marzipan (which is an almond paste) that can be shaped into animals. The one that I got was the last tiger that they had~!

     

I FINALLY FOUND HIM! Each and every single time that I wanted to give change to him, I wasn't able to because I'm either running late for class or I don't have any change on me. Not only that, he ALWAYS moves and is never in one area!!



Later afterwards, we both headed to a Chinese restaurant that Lisa is obsessed about with their dumplings. We shared the sizzling udon noodles together and each ordered a serving of steamed dumplings

     

I must admit that we were both rather disappointed with Dralion since each of the acts were way too long. At the beginning of each performance, we were in awe at the flexibility of the performers as well as the usage of vibrant colors they used in the acts. However it quickly got over-saturated and they overdid the performance, making it overkill which caused both Lisa and I to get bored. There were perhaps two or three acts that we enjoyed, which were at the end of the show

     

It was the skipping rope performance that salvaged the entire show and thankfully it was the last act of the performance, since we highly doubted anything could have topped that magnificent act. You can see it in the trailer (they're in a pyramid formation and they all jump at the same time).
