Singapore pt 5

Thursday night we had a fancy banquet for our conference:

木曜日晩会議の宴会した:

Open Bar!  飲み放題!

They had a variety of performers lined up,  in this case two guys on stilts. 宴会でたくさん出演者が居た。

They also had some indian dancers do a show as the first courses were served...

They had two really cool performances,  first was a snake charmer guy:

とても面白出演者が二人が居た。初めて蛇遣い !

First he did some gags with some non poisonous snake, then he took off the turbin and did some dangerous stuff with a king cobra. キングコブラと実演した。

Yikes! 怖い!

And he had an albino python (from California), he let people take pictures with it.一緒写真撮れますか?

The other cool performance was this guy who did Sichuan Opera's 'Face Changing' (變臉):

次は四川劇の変顔(變臉)先生!

Obviously its hard to get the delights of face changing in a still picture, so you'll have to watch the video...でも変わる時写真撮るできません。。。

I put together the snake charmer and the 'face changer' into one video clip, take a look: それからビデオ見てください!

I'm sure you guys would be mad if i didn't include some pictures of the food.  They had two types of tables, one for Indian vegetarian and one for Chinese food. unfortunately most of the Chinese food had seafood in it.  including:

Shark Fin Soup.  yikes!  i refused to eat it. It's bad! 食べ物1枚だけ撮った。これは鱶鰭(ふかひれ)湯です。悪い!食べませんでした!

OK,  I got more Singapore pics coming... patience! ;-)

JRS: well i don't like most seafood anyway, but in this case its not because of the taste. Generally my philosophy is that anything hunted from the wild is not something people should be eating in the modern world. The impact on the ecosystem is too great. if it was 'farmed' shark-fin soup from a humanely run place, that would be a different story, but especially since i am getting so into scuba diving, I want to protect our undersea eco-diversity!

renren: that last guy (in the video) was freaking out, i was expecting to see a wet stain in his pants, but for some reason his friends forced him to go on stage...

yeah, the music wasn't exactly traditional either! snake charmer guy - i think in India they are cracking down on them, but this guy was doing more of a non-exploitative show for tourists, he said he ordered his snake from California, not caught it out of the wild...and no flute at least!

thats a bad sign if he is letting his in-laws push him around like that... no one has sympathy for the sharks. if it were kitten paws that were harvested the same way, delicious or not you'd feel differently....
