I must just give a plug for the Afrika! Afrika! circus, currently stationed in Amsterdam after successful runs in Germany and Austria. This animal-free, mostly African circus is well worth the price of admission and guarantees you a night out that won’t soon be forgotten.
Everything’s there, from acrobats to unicycling basketballers, from contortionists to jugglers. The live music, too, is excellent and will have you swinging in your seat.
Sarah and I had a great time, while Eloïse fell asleep on the couch at home with Oma and Opa. It was an experience to savour, a night out together as a twosome, essentially our first since Eloïse entered into our life.
