BubbleClownery

Today we went to a bubbleclownery show. It is basically a guy who does all different kinds of bubbles. Here is a link if you want to learn more about it. http://www.bubbleshow-strasser.com/

It was a fun show and the kids really enjoyed it. Jason and I got a kick out of it because it was fun but some things you would never have happen in the US. The first part of the show was your basic bubbles but then the second part of the show was smoke filled bubbles. In the US if there were smoke filled bubbles the smoke would be made with some fake smoke. In the Czech Republic the smoke is made with cigarrettes! We were a little surprised when the bubble guy lit up a cigarette in the middle of the performance. He proceeded to fill bubbles with smoke since as he was blowing on the bubbles smoke was coming out of his mouth. It was interesting since the bubbles floated better and they did fill with smoke but we still couldn't believe it. Then to make it even more mind boggling he proceeded to fan the bubbles out above the crowd of children where the bubble would pop and the smoke/soap would fall on kids heads. Luckily we were sitting in the back and didn't have to experience that. The show was only 20 minutes long so we didn't have to stay in the smokey room too long which was good. Despite the complete difference in culture with the smoking it was still a fun show and the kids really enjoyed it.
