TRIP TO CHINA

I went to China. I was part of a 6-person stiltwalking troupe called "Insect Circus", created by the Gumps .
We traveled with with 18 or so members of the UCLA Spirit Squad.
Our scedule was really packed with sightseeing and performences, organised by others.
Sometimes we had some idea what to expect, other times it was a surpise, even to our guides.

Here are pictures of our trip-
