Dralion in Japan

This month has already set me back a lot of money...what with the Okinawa trip and the ticket to watch Dralion in Harajuku Big Top. But it's always well worth the money to see a performance by Cirque Du Soleil. I watched Saltibanco in Singapore and it left me simply dumbfounded as to how some people can do the impossible. Also, the choreography and music were hauntingly beautiful. Dralion, with its theme of East & West (Dragon representing the East and Lion the West), was also a huge success. During the two hours, my eyes and neck were kept busy with the dancing, singing and those unbelievable acrobatic feats. All these happen at the same time so no matter where you look around the stage, you'll be happily occupied. The two Japanese girls beside me couldn't help going "Ahhh....SUGOI!!" every few seconds. As the word summed it up, it really was SUGOI, though the first time is always the most magical.
