Minsk: Symphony and Circus

Category : Travel

Our big trip has started. My Mom is a professor and it is her sabbatical year, so our family is going to travel to many countries.

Our very first trip is Belarus, where we are visiting our grandparents, great grandparents, aunts and uncles, and the rest of the family.

Minsk is always beautiful. My mom, Evan, and I walk around Minsk a lot. We go to cafes, amusement parks, and do lots of other fun things, like eating ice cream and ride on the subway(my brother’s recommendation☺).  One day my grandpa got an invitation to a concert. The presidential orchestra was going to perform at the Palace of the Republic! Of course, me and my mom went to the concert. It was amazing. They played the best soundtrack hits from the most famous movies like Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Pink Panther, and Harry Potter. They played very well! I think it was one of the best concerts ever.

Another evening my mom, aunt Vika, Evan and I went to the National Circus. Last year I was called onto the arena to help a performer who made giant bubbles. This time I wanted to go on the arena again. We had the best seats ever, and guess what? I did go on to the arena! This year I helped the two clowns. It was so much fun. I think I should be getting money because I am performing every year!
