LIEPZIG, GERMANY

HERE IS A NEW VIDEO from a stop we made on the road driving from Essen to Liepzig.

We're staying for three nights in Liepzig, a wonderful quaint and yet modern town. We arrived after dark Sunday due to getting lost, per usual. The cobble stone streets were FULL of people, but it sounded like the inside of a library. This town, even during the day, is full of people walking, biking, shopping and eating at the Christmas market, but still the calm quiet is consistent and...well... unusual (if we're comparing it to ANY U.S. town).

Due to the amazing generosity of circus friends of friends and the Krystall Palast Theater, Ian and I are staying upstairs from the theater in a room along with the other artists in the show. It's a huge make-shift room with a small kitchen where the "stove" sits next to the box of a shower. But there's hot water, warm bed, and good people, what more could you ask for?

The show - "Very British" - is great. It is a "Variete" dinner theater type setting with Circus acts from New York, Denmark, London, and Germany performing.
