Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

I took this picture on one of my days off from the cirque show, on a group trip to the Great Wall in Beijing, China. We had been stationed in Shanghai, China for about 2 months, and it was the last city of the Asian leg of the tour, (also my final city on tour). Everyone was tired and ready to take a break from the show but, taking this trip really lifted up everyones spirits and made us all remember why we loved being part of this wonderful show. On top of everything, toward the end of the day, we were climbing to the highest point of the wall allowed and when we got there, two of my friends and co-workers who had been together for a very long time, finally got engaged at the tip of the wall, overlooking all of Beijing. It was a very moving experience, and one that I will always keep very close to my heart.
