While traveling last summer, we had the opportunity to attend a festival in the city that we were visiting.  It was a cultural event of street performers and many different shows.

During the week that we were there, we were able to watch comedians, magicians, fire jugglers and stiltwalkers.  I had to explain to my child that the people on stilts were not giants.

Throughout the week, there were many shows that we went together as a family, and there were a few that we left our kids at my sister’s house.  Some of the material was just not appropriate for them, and we were sure to ensure that we only took them to shows that were appropriate to their age.  They loved each one that we took them to and the smiles that they had were worth every penny.

It was definitely an entertaining trip as we have never seen some of the sites that we saw on that trip.
