Shows

Package tours often go to various shows and dinner shows. They are actually fairly entertaining, if not always entirely authentic. As a plus, they don't care if you bring in a tripod and photograph, so I did, and got some great shots of the acrobats.

All the staff on the cruise ship were also entertainers who did a show.
