Today we went to Cirque Shanghai at Navy Pier to celebrate my friend's daughter's "gotcha day". It was two years ago today that my friend, Natalie, got her daughter, Mallery, in China. I took a ton of pictures in the show and out on Navy Pier but I'll save the Navy Pier pictures for another day... maybe tomorrow.
The Cirque Shanghai was absolutely fabulous... the kids were totally captivated. And then... as they opened the curtains for the finale, things went wrong.... we heard a snap and one of the cables broke on this swing thing that had about five people on it. None of our group actually saw the one girl fall, we just saw her lying on the stage afterwards.... she was sitting up somewhat... but didn't get up. There was confusion and they finally closed the curtains and just ended the show. We never knew what happened. I just hope she was okay.
Here are a few of the pictures I took...
Oh... and our internet/phone issue is back... so let's hope this posts!
'nite!
