Saturday Snapshot

 

Saturday Snapshots is hosted by Alyce at At Home With Books.
We attended the opera in Xian, China when we were there a few years ago. It included a dumpling dinner which I posted about over here. Sorry - there was this one woman in front of me that had her head squarely in front of me the whole time!!

  3. Sometimes you get a head in front of you, just the way it is. :-)
    But seriously, these are very good pictures, taken in what I guess is fairly low ligh.

  8. So beautiful! Did you have a libretto to follow so that you could understand all the action of the opera's plot?

  10. It's always a challenge to get good performance shots...especially when the folks in front of you keep moving their pesky heads ;)
