A little late but some of the pictures form the juggling convention we attended last week.
Decorating the stand.
Russell and Tess made the Knight for the reception desk.
What was going on in the balloon room, all the details were posted around the main hall.
Then it was the first show of the week, Spinning.
More from the spinning show.
It was difficult to get pictures as everything was spinning.
I did wonder how they came up with the title for the show.
The cigar box juggler possibly stole the show.
The end of the show and a baby tank.
Mummy and baby tank.
A couple of chrome dogs, a prize for the juggling Olympics that took place
in Margate on Friday afternoon at Dreamland.
It was then onto show two.
Difficult to get the shots due to all the movement.
The ring act was superb, beautiful music, great choreography and beautifully paced.
It was so good it brought a tear to my eye as I remembered others who would
have loved to have seen this act and appreciated it.
The jester compare was very good as well, this was his little spot in the show.
The guy with the plastic bag was excellent,
simple juggling but very very funny and professionally executed.
Finding the balloon room.
Made the crown for the gala show, sitting on the balcony at Weatherspoon's
in Margate enjoying the view and having a chat.
Tess and Russell, the perfect couple, he he.
At the games, it was a fun afternoon.
Dreamland had a selection of Pinballs so I did have a play.
The gala show. The balloon figure did juggle as well.
Some of the acts, it was a very enjoyable show.
Paul Zenon was the non juggling act in the show.
It was a fabulous show to watch, such dedication to an art form.
A little twisting Saturday morning.
I believe this lady is from Norway, she was standing at the door when I was running the workshop
so I invited her in to twist. Turns out she is a natural, the dinosaur was pretty good for first time twisting.
I did write her name down somewhere but have mis placed it at the moment,
this was one of the highlights of the convention for me.
Changing the look of the vase.
Some pictures from the young juggler of the year.
I did not get pictures of everyone entering.
I enjoyed the ball balancing act and the hoola hoop lady was very professional.
The last of the pictures, the sign was in my air B&B.
I had a play with a face design on the Sunday morning.
Russell hid the frog up just outside the balloon room.
I'm pleased that I found the piece of paper with the young ladies
name who made the dinosaur and came into the balloon workshop.
It was Malin Myrseth
