My Experience at Cirque du Soleil

Last year, I went to the Cirque du Soleil in Barcelona. The name of the performance was Alegria. The show was very expensive, but it was worth it. I initially expected to dislike the show, but it turned out to be a fantastic and amazing day.

I went by car. On the way to the circus, I was nervous because it was my first time. The air was really warm because the people in the car were cold, but I was not. When I arrived at Palau Sant Jordi, I was amazed because everything was great. More and more people arrived and bought water, food, and other items. Then, we went to our seats. When it started, it was magnificent. I was speechless and shed tears of emotion; I had goosebumps. In the Palau Sant Jordi, the spectators left their scarves, gloves, and jackets because the atmosphere was very crowded.

When the performance finished, the audience applauded a lot, and shortly afterwards, the palms of our hands were red. All in all, the Cirque du Soleil was a great experience. From now on, I am going to save money and I will be the first to buy tickets!
