varekai - been there, done that





Did the whole Varekai thing tonight. And although it was a bit short and I didn't really know what was going on, I enjoyed it. Was it worth the $85 spent? - some would say yes, others no - but I say money spent will always have an opportunity cost, so don't sweat the small stuff!

The three little 'boys' (one turned out to be a girl!), the juggling guy, and the human juggling were the highlights for me - I kept thinking Worker's Comp throughout the whole thing! The costumes were amazing (the Mums must've spent ages sewing in front of the telly hehe). Lowlights were the food/drink/everything-else prices and the guy sitting near me who had a serious case of the house of B.O. in the second half.

Overall it was a great night out spent with the group of predominantly young working adults from Regen and CYPG (these are the only ones who could afford it hehe). It was a great experience and was truly entertaining - all the way. But I wouldn't say that I'm dying to see the next one that comes into town (though to see it would be nice) - I have been there and done that.
