BIG INTERNATIONAL PARTY!

Oh my goodness what a PARTY!!! We got on a bus to Guangjou for one of China's biggest festivals!! This one was called Guangjou Huge International Party :) hahaha not really I just can't remember and I don't want to get up and look, call me lazy ;) Anyways they had this parade with floats of every city and our Zhongshan had the coolest!! Then they started the performances which were BEYOND anything I have ever seen!!! 33,000 in the audience and 11,000 performers!! The Chinese know how to put on a show and that will never be an understatement!! The fireworks were huge we had every huge singing star of China there.. which I had no idea who they were but I was pumped and screaming anyways! BUT THE BEST of the whole night was when Jackie Chan came onto stage and started singing "We are ready!" I was freaking out so much and was sooo close to him! Well.. close enough to be cool!! I had no idea he sang but he does and he is amazing!! Awhh it was the best moment of the night to see Jackie Chan and we were hoping so badly that after the performance we could meet him :) We didn't but still... JACKIE CHAN!! We got "guest passes" for the show and bags full of noisemakers, lights and the program laid out in a booklet. I'm excited to come home and show you all! This was just like the Olympics! I was so happy I got to go!

Wow! You are right: the Chinese do know how to put on a show. No wonder they invented fireworks.
