Last week Gwen's school was invited to Cavalia."The internationally acclaimed Cavalia pushes the limits of live entertainment with its newest production that is now touring the globe. Cavalia Odysseo is a theatrical experience, an ode to horse and man that marries the equestrian arts, awe inspiring acrobatics and high-tech theatrical effects. Set under a 38-meter tall White Big Top, audiences will be transported around the world as more than 50 horses and an international cast play and demonstrate their intimate bond. The 1,393 square meter stage features a real carousel and a magically appearing 302,000-litre lake in front of a stunning video backdrop the size of three IMAX screens. Odysseo is a two-hour dream that will move the heart and touch the soul. It is an evening that the audience will never forget."
We did not get to see the show itself, but we did get to partake in all things sensory! We were divided into four groups and rotated through four stations: drums, costumes, trampolines, and horses.

| Gwen listening and feeling the vibration of the drum beats. She even got to bang on them herself! |

| Feeling the different textures of the costumes. |

| Bouncing on the trampoline ~ best picture I could get of her huge smile! |

| Gwen enjoyed the deep breaths of the horse on her hands! |
At the end, each child got their very own horse and horseshoe! Thank you to the staff of Cavalia and FBC! What an amazing experience!
