Cirque Du Soleil 10-9-05
While driving around on Saturday, we noticed this huge tent in front of the Walker. A big party for a rich family? A city party that we hadn't heard about? A new art display?
Upon closer inspection we noticed that it is Cirque Du Soleil.
Ah, we had heard it was coming. Of course I wanted to return to take some photos. And Hiro wanted to visit the Walker. So on Sunday we returned. After looping around the block several times trying to park Bastie, we found a spot. Hiro noted that if we circled many more times in the car, we'd make butter.
Camera and new lens ready, holding Soba's leash, we headed to the tents. Walking Soba and doing anything else is very difficult. You'd think she's a bloodhound on the track of a wanted burglar. Or a race greyhound trying to follow the mechanical rabbit. On a positive note, her pace helps you reach your destination quicker.
Sadly, when we arrived I realized a photo would be difficult. The only way I could capture a good picture of the incredible tents is while driving on the highway at a high rate of speed, while looking over my shoulder. Needless to say, I didn't even ask if we could try that. Alas, this is about all of it that you could see at one time.
Every once in a while you learn something new about the one you love. On that day we both realized that the other one also wanted to see Cirque Du Soleil. We had never talked about it before. Too bad, it looks like a lot of fun, and it's probably hard to find tickets now.
