As a special treat for Christmas Eve we went to see the Wuhan Acrobatic Troupe.
I'd left it late to book so we could only get tickets for a show in Yuen Long in the New Territories near the border, which was an adventure in itsself.
There were only a few single seats left but luckily near the front so we had an excellent view.
The show was terrific display of skill with acrobatics, traipse, plate spinning...
hat juggling...
...and my favourite, the bendy ladies. One thing that surprised me, but perhaps shouldn't, was how chunky the female acrobats were.
Here is a link to a video of the show (here).
We also had a interesting trip home. Since the theatre was some distance from the station, we walked through the new town which was very lively with diners and shoppers.
We eventually took a night bus back into Hong Kong along route 3 which goes through Tai Lam tunnel through the mountain then past my work, and under the harbour. The lights looked lovely and Hannah snuggled up and went to sleep in my arms.
